My condolences to the family and friends of Herb Lee. I first met Herb at a PAL track meet in the mid 80's and he told me to take the SFPD exam to become a police officer. Herb inspired a generation of minorities to join and fully integrate the sworn ranks of the SFPD. All San Franciscans owe Herb a debt of gratitude.

My mom, Anna Lee, was friends with Herb in high school. She always spoke highly of him. Then,when I was in high school in the 1970s, he and his band came to George Washington High to perform for us. Everyone laughed and applauded when the curtains went up and police officers were performing. I think Herb sang a Santana number. And, a lot of kids spoke so highly of PAL; we used to hear about it all the time.
Thank you, Herb, for all your dedication and passion in serving the public...

Thanks Herb for leading the way for Asians in the SFPD. You have left footsteps which many of us have since attempted to follow. In many ways you have lead a long line of Asian Officers through a honorable career in law enforcement. Rest in peace my friend. And thanks for the fishing trips.
