Sorry for the lateness of this message. Being in Shanghai, I just heard the sad news. Herb was a great friend and mentor. We shared many interesting conversations, laughs and afternoon concerts together. I´m sure he left many fond memories for all who knew him well.

Ellie...I considered Herbie a special friend and will miss his oft-repeated jokes; I was an easy target for him. May his memory be a blessing.

I got to know Herb when we both served on the board of the Harvard Musical Association. He was a fine gentleman. Please accept my condolences.
