Dear Penny and Will:

We are all very sorry you have lost a beloved father and father-in-law. It seems that all the runners at Tunney's Pasture owe a big debt to Mr. Foxwell, who passed his love of running onto his daughter.

Our deepest sympathy.

Miki Pecovic, Sonja and Andy Baldwin

Dear Penny and family, today we will be celebrating with you in spirit the life of your father. I was very fortunate to talk to your father on a few occasions - I think your father will continue being an great inspiration for all his children and grandchildren.

Bon Voyage, Herbie!

Penny,
Very sorry to hear about your father. Please accept our sincere condolences during this time. Your father really sounded like a wonderful man!

I love you Grandpa.

Well Herb, that great pugilist in heaven has called you home, go peacefully my friend. We had many a chat, many an arguement, you and I, over the past 30 so years, from Ali, to Hagler, to Hearns, to Chuvalo, we both loved the boxing battles. And not just that ring, but the political ring, any ring for that matter, our talks were endless. I learned a lot from you Sir, and I laughed a lot with you. Now you are at your final destination, you have earned your wings, fly free Herb. Your kids,...

Your legacy lives on...

Dad/Grandpa, the world suddenly seems smaller. You led our family by example with dignity, courage, strength, compassion and constant, unconditional love. You will always be our hero. Montie, Susan & Jack Foxwell
