"And she would have loved the fact that all of the Saints starting linebackers honored her own baby with their presence. Adam Zimmer, Vikki and Mike Zimmer’s oldest child now 25 is, of course, a coach, and the Saints assistant linebackers coach."

Man, I am pretty touched by this. May she rest in peace.

what a 1st class organization (N.O.)... thoughts and prayers to the Zimmer family... unexpected deaths really hurt.

Great article...Nice to see the team rally around Mike and Adam Zimmer and their family.

People can criticize a lot of things about the Saints, but they are a quality bunch of guys from Payton on down. This is just another story that reminds me how lucky we are to have these guys representing New Orleans.

Man. I lost my own mother four years ago, and it was fairly sudden but not all that unexpected (she was 82 and diagnosed with cancer on a Monday and died that Friday). I've never had to deal with the sudden and unexpected loss of a loved one, and I hope I never have to do that. My thoughts and prayers are with the Zimmer family, as well as the extended family who knew her so well. I had no idea until now that SP had known her for years. A great tribute to someone who was apparently one of the best.

I am really proud to have Sean Payton as the coach of my beloved Saints.

What a touching story. I'm really proud of our Saints and the Bengals for putting the game aside, even if just for a day, to honor Vikki Zimmer. She must have been a special lady. May she rest in peace.

Thats a very touching story. I really appreciate the fact that SP and many Saints took the time to head up to Cinci for the funeral, even with a very difficult game on the horizon. There are SOME things more important than football.

I've got something in my eye........

What a special lady she must have been. God bless her and her family.

Looks like our team truly is a family, from players to coaches. Makes me proud to be a fan. My thoughts are with the Zimmers.

All the best go out to the Zimmers. How can you not be proud of the saints organization?
