    "I remember seeing a large bowl my grandmother's sister Carrie printedinside with a composition of roses. The subtle coloring of the designsVictorian amateur's carried out astonishes me. Also, the "metallic"colors they sometimes used. Specimens of the art of wood burnin, Carriepracticed her youth, were stored a shelf in one of the upstairsclosets."

    "Carrie came under the influence of Mary Baker Eddy and became aChristian Scientist. I remember that she subscribed to the "ChristianScience Monitor" for me when I was in high school. My grandmother,Carrie's confidant, could not have failed to take in Carrie'sindependent pursuit of wholeness of body and spirit and lapse fromLutheranism."

    "In 1923 or 1924, my father's aunt Carrie lent him $4,000.00 to build aprize winning design my parents saw in a newspaper or magazine, a grayshingled Cape Cod cottage on large lot on Granville street in Gahanna.Because I started to grow up there, I have lasting memories of thehouse and yard."

    "In her youth Carrie painted China and tried her hand at wood burning.In time she took up photography. Her well composed, black and whitephotographs and others taken with her camera, accumulating in thedrawers in the library table in the living room on Stelzer road, were arecord of an unbroken communication between the Zimmers and mygrandparents. Carrie looks as though she has stepped out of a fashionplate in several turn of the century photographs, she with upswept hair,large hats with plumes, and a fine figure."

    John Zimmer, Carries husband, belonged to a farm family that lived inthe upper end of Stelzer road and was related to the Krumms by more thanone marriage. Madison, Wisconsin, was his first place of employment.In a drawer of the library table, there used to be a small album ofphotographs of the interior of John and carries Madison apartment.Carrie believed that it was important to illustrate for the folks backin Ohio how she had furnished her first home after marriage-with heavydraperies, figured carpets, and ornamental, hard-edged chairs and tablesmade of wood. It is a useful directory to turn of the century, somewhatelevated middle class taste.
    The Zimmer's did not stay long in Madison. Whenever I heard themmentioned, they lived in Decatur, Illinois, where the national cashregister company, for which John worked, located him permanently. Mygrandmother visited Zimmer's there numerous times over the years, atleast once with my father when he was in his teens.
