Joanna Zimmerman, of Marcellus Michigan, passed away at home surrounded by family.

She was born in Three Rivers MI, June 25, 1952, the daughter of John Henry Claridge and Mary Ann (Pettibone) Claridge.

On October 1, 1982, in Kalamazoo MI she married Paul D. Zimmerman Sr. who preceded her in death.

Joanna & Paul were founding members of Old Iron Motorcycle Club. They spent many years organizing & running events within the club where she enjoyed spending time with her “biker” family.

Joanna also spent several years managing Spirit Springs Farm, a family-operated apple orchard, where she developed an extensive knowledge of antique apple varieties.

An avid gardener and crafter, Joanna enjoyed traveling around the world with Paul. She was a passionate woman who wore her heart on her sleeve. Her biggest fulfillment came from spending time making memories with family & friends.
