Zimmermans celebrate 45th anniversary


Norm and Donna Zimmerman

Norm and Donna Zimmerman celebrated their 45th anniversary with a trip to Pike’s Peak, Colorado. Norm and Donna met at the ArMar Ballroom while being entertained by The Do’s and the Don’ts. They were married Oct. 20, 1974 at St. Matthew Lutheran Church, Monticello. 

Following the ceremony, they honeymooned at Pike’s Peak, Colorado and Phoenix, Ariz. They chose to live in Mt. Vernon, Donna’s hometown, then in the Black Oak Schoolhouse near Central Park. After losing the remodeled schoolhouse to a fire, they built a new house in the same location and started raising their children, Heidi and Joni. 

They purchased a farm near Norm’s boyhood farm, which they also purchased, remodeled and moved into in 1999. 

They had this caricature drawn at the Great Jones County Fair which showcases their love for Monticello.
