A visitation will be held from 4-8 p.m. on Friday, September 22, 2017, at Murdoch Funeral Home & Cremation Service, Marion, Iowa. Funeral services will be held at 10 a.m. on Saturday, September 23, 2017, at Christ Episcopal Church in Cedar Rapids. Burial will take place immediately following the funeral services at Buffalo Cemetery in Hiawatha. Brian was born October 23, 1955, in Waukon, Iowa to Walter (Wally) and Sally (Sharp) Zimmerman. After graduating from Waukon Senior High School in 1973, Brian went on to earn a Bachelor’s of Business Administration from the University of Iowa in 1979. It was there that he met his future wife, Julie (Schilling) Zimmerman, whom he married on October 3, 1981, in Charles City, Iowa. In 1979, Brian began a career in life insurance and financial planning and in 1986, he began his own firm. What started in his basement is now a financial planning firm with sixty members across three states, known today as Securian Advisors MidAmerica. His life’s work was building relationships and he had a passion for helping others. A life-long Iowa Hawkeye fan, Brian enjoyed years of memories at Kinnick and Carver, taking in any football, basketball, or wrestling match he could. He also enjoyed his days on the water, whether it was fishing with his brothers, son, son-in-law and grandsons or cruising on his boat with his family. Brian was an avid traveler, always ready for the next vacation or adventure. He loved planning new trips and instilled his love of travel in his children and grandchildren. Brian was also the top supporter of his family, never missing a game or meet that his children participated in. He also made sure to attend his nieces and nephews activities whenever possible. Brian loved nothing more in life than being a grandpa to his “little buddies.” He attended any activity his grandsons were involved in, often stopped by at random times to play, taught them all kinds of naughty things and babysat regularly. Grandpa’s macaroni and cheese can never be topped. Brian is survived by his wife of nearly 36 years, Julie; daughter, Maria (Bret) Paulsen; son, Kyle (Laura) Zimmerman; three grandsons, Garrett, Chase and Owen, all of Cedar Rapids; his older brother, David (Jeannine) Zimmerman of Waukon, Iowa; younger brother, Todd (Teresa) Zimmerman of Naples, Florida; mother-in-law, Dee Schilling of Charles City; and sisters-in-law, Chris (Rex) Pruess of Iowa City, Mary McManis (Gene Pankey) of Burlington, and Rene (Dennis) Arps of Riverside. Additionally, he is survived by his beloved nieces and nephews, John (Jessica) Zimmerman, Kristina (Ben) Gralund, Kelsey (Matt) Slay, William and Ingrid Zimmerman, Jamie and Joe Zimmerman, Kelly (Don) Zeck, Alex McManis, Deanna and Megan Arps. He is also survived by great-nieces and great-nephews, Hannah, Addison, Mason, Carson, Jillian, Sawyer, Bodee, Adrian and Tyler, as well as many cousins. Brian was preceded in death by his parents, Wally and Sally Zimmerman; father-in-law, Roy Schilling; younger brother, Gary (surviving spouse, Susan) Zimmerman; as well as many aunts, uncles and cousins. In lieu of flowers, memorials may be given to a favorite charity of donor’s choice or to Brian’s family to continue support for the local charities and organizations that were close to his heart.
