We had the opportunity to meet Herb many times through Jim & Patty Stewart. He was a delightful person! We know he made a magnificent difference in many lives! We're sorry for your loss - Ken & Donna Wagner

When I read this I was glad to know about the Chaffey legacy. Susan your father was an amazing man, and loved his homes that he built. They are very beautiful and stunning. And I did not know about the baseball teams and the University stadium. That is so amazing. Love and Hugs.

What can you say about someone who shared so much of their heart with openness and joy? You can say they were special - and they were. You can say they made a difference - and they did. You can say they'll never be forgotten - and they won't. They'll live forever in our memories and most of all, in our hearts. This passage says everything I thought when Jim passed away and I still feel him in my heart. Forever in our hearts.

With deepest condolences from my family to your family.

My first job in the building and real estate business was working for Herb and Don at Wick Homes in 1966. Herb was always a great guy to me, and a "homey" from Grays Harbor to boot. We'll miss him with our lives a little more empty without him.
