Stanley Hertzbach Obituary
Silver Spring, MD - Stanley Shipley Hertzbach (age 88)
On Saturday January 3, 2026, Stan Hertzbach of Silver Spring, MD formerly of Amherst, MA. Born June 15, 1937, in Baltimore, MD to the late Estelle and George Hertzbach. Beloved husband of Bobbye Turshinsky Hertzbach; devoted father of Rebeca (Edward) Blum, Marc and Gregory Hertzbach; cherished Pop-Pop of Moriah, Aryeh, Mitchell and Steven.
Stan was an experimental particle physicist and a member of the UMass faculty from 1965 until his retirement in 2009. With UMass colleagues, Stan joined the SLD experiment at SLAC (precision studies of the Z boson). He then contributed to the electromagnetic calorimeter of the BaBar experiment, also at SLAC. In the early 2000s, Stan worked on beam concepts for a Next Linear Collider using SLC-style technology. In addition to teaching and research, Stan served as Associate Dean in College of Arts and Sciences for a number of years, a role which he felt had the most impact on his students.
Services were held at Judean Memorial Gardens, 16225 Batchellors Forest Road, Olney, Maryland. In lieu of flowers, contributions may be made to The Johns Hopkins University Whiting School of Engineering, Student Financial Aid Fund. Services entrusted to Sagel Bloomfield Danzansky Goldberg Funeral Care. www.sagelbloomfield.com
