Death of "Caveman" Ends an Era in IdahoI thought this to be a refreshing if sorrowful read in these times of ours.
I’m an Idahoan and have the utmost admiration for a man who lived free and died free, and I’m proud to live in a state where that spirit is still alive and well. I wish I’d had the honor of knowing him.
Would that there are more men of his character in this country today...
"What gave him uncommon grace and dignity for me were his spiritual life, his musical artistry, his unperturbed acceptance of life as it is, and being a WWII veteran who had served his country and harbored no expectations in return"
RIP "Dugout Dick" Zimmerman
