Humble,knowledge,happy, fine, and loyalty great man are some of the words that could express what Herb was. His passion and knowledge of art made him a great Patron and supporter for artists between others Frederico Vigil. Luz Reyes and Frederico had the fortune to meet him a long time ago.

Mr. Beenhouer spoke to my students at Pojoaque High School and to a workshop for teachers that I teach on the Holocaust. He was a delightful speaker who displayed patience and joy for his work. He gave his memories to us as a way to learn and love. He was certainly a gift to those students and to the teachers to whom he spoke. We at the New Mexico TOLI organization appreciate his kindness and willingness to share. May his memory be a Blessing.

Sending all of your family my deepest condolences on the death of your dear father. I have so many fond memories of spending time with Herb and your mother, Bernie, in their welcoming home on Camino Militar. So many years ago!!!.....And I enjoyed hearing him play the cello in later years. Herb and Bernie always made me feel so welcomed, and so included. I know you will miss your Dad very much. What a beautiful soul. Much love to each of you! Suzanne Huebner (Dulle)

He was an intelligent heart-lead humanitarian and nature lover. I had the privilege of meeting Herb through my mother. She and Herb were good friends having met through a course at the Renesan Institute for Lifelong Learning, discovering kindred spirits in their shared love for the arts, life, and Nature. I enjoyed Herb's spirit, intellect, zest for life, humor, love, and compassion. What depths! I'm so glad to have met and experienced, been witness to, his determined and clear sighted mind...
