It is with incredible sadness that we announce the passing of Alexander Stinson Zimmer, cherished son of Gerald Charles and Patricia Gail. Born in Vancouver, British Columbia on September 24th, 1986 and left us too soon on December 9th, 2018. Alex was predeceased by his father Gerald and is survived by his mother Gail, his beloved daughter Magdalena "Maggie" Victoria, his love Melisa, his sisters Anna and Amanda, brother-in-law Jimmy, as well as many aunts, uncles, cousins, and friends.
Affectionally known as "Zims", Alex thoroughly enjoyed archery, creating art, exploring the city, gaming, quoting movies, and having a laugh and a pint with friends. As a doting father, nothing gave him greater joy than the precious memories he made with Maggie, his "Boof". His presence in this world touched more lives than he could ever possibly know, and he will be forever loved, remembered and incredibly missed.
A Celebration of Life will be held on Saturday, January 12, 2019 at 1:00 pm at Kearney’s Columbia-Bowell Funeral Home, 219 6th Street, in New Westminster, BC. Alex regularly donated blood and in lieu of flowers, the family asks that you consider giving the gift of life by donating to Canadian Blood Services in Alex’s memory.
