Harriet Herd

My condolences go to the family of Mrs. Herd, she was an inspiration to me in so many ways,just seeing her carry on from day to day inspired me.

A true inspiration to others. She didn't let anything keep her down. She kept pressing encouraging others to deal with their short comings. She will bedeeply missed. May the most High God, a God of love and mercy comfort the family during this time of sorrow. Revelations 21:3,4

Sincerely,

Claire, I was sorry to hear that you lost your mother. My mother admired her and I know she would expect me to write to you and let you know that she was well thought of by my father, the Rev. Dr. George Morrel and my mother, Grayce. I lost my mother in 1975 and my father in 1980 so I know what a true loss it is. Still, they will always be young in our hearts and as my Daddy would have said, "enjoying the heavenly banquet" together.

My sincere condolences on your loss. Linda Herd, Midland, TX

Tevis, Patty and the rest of your family, my prayers are with you on your loss. I had heard of Harriet for years before I met her, through my parents' involvement in the diocesan church. During my time in Midland while I was beginning my law practice and attending Holy Trinity, it was my privilege to get to know her there directly. She was a warm and remarkable woman, and I know you'll miss her.

Harriet was a "nun" as was I in "Sound of Music" many years ago. I was a shy teacher with lots of papers to grade. We sat in the wardrobe room of the old theater waiting for our bits. She was so much fun (doing her needlepoint as I remember.) She was so kind and cheerful, opening her home to our cast party, and sending clippings she saw about people long after the musical ended. If I saw her out in later years she always said, "Hello, sister!" She made a difference in my life as she did so...

No finer lady nor a greater inspiration. Our heartfelt sympathy goes to Harvey and all the family members.

Our deepest sympathies to the entire Herd family. Harriet was an incredibly special and thoughtful woman and I consider myself blessed to have had her as my Godmother.
