Obituary
Timothy C. Zerr, age 61, of Lakewood, Colorado (formerly of Park), passed away Sunday, November 10, 2013 at St. Luke's Presbyterian Hospital, Denver. He was born April 21, 1952, in Oakley, the son of Augustine M. and Phyllis J. (Racette) Zerr.
As the result an accident in his youth, Tim spent more than his last 40 years bound to a wheelchair. He refused to let a thing like this hold him back from living a full and rewarding life. He and his brother, Cletus, owned and operated Zarco Equipment in Denver for many years. Their business consists of cleaning, sandblasting, and painting heavy equipment for businesses and individuals. If asked to describe Tim, most of his friends, family and acquaintances would say he was a wonderful role model, leader, and positive influence on their lives. His siblings considered him a great "big brother", and always looked to him for guidance.
Survivors include his parents, Augustine and Phyllis, of Quinter; five siblings Farrel and wife Merna of Park, Jonita and husband David Windholz of Hays, Cletus and wife Amanda of Wheat Ridge, Colorado, Jeanette and husband Johnny Reames of Justin, Texas, and Carol and husband Danny Zimmerman of Maryville, Missouri; and nieces and nephews (Farrel) Amanda, son Cam, and husband Calvin Pfannenstiel, Doug Zerr, Jeff Zerr, Brad Zerr and wife Becky, (Jonita) Jennifer and Ryan Windholz, (Cletus) Whitney and Logan Zerr, (Jeanette) Ashley and Craig Reames, (Carol) Danielle, Haylee, John Zimmerman; and special friend, Gail. He was preceded in death by his grandparents, a sister Belinda, and a niece Jamie.
A mass of Christian burial will be 10:00 a.m., Saturday, November 16, 2013 at Sacred Heart Catholic Church of Park with Father James Thomas as Celebrant. Burial will be in the church cemetery.
Visitation will be Friday, from 5 to 7 p.m. with a parish vigil service following at 7 p.m., both at the funeral home.
Memorial contributions are suggested to the Select Specialty Hospital - 5B or Sacred Heart Catholic Cemetery and may be sent in care of Schmitt Funeral Home, 901 South Main, Quinter, KS 67752.
