Herbert RICHMAN

Herb Richman was a legend growing up in our household and a dear friend to my father. RIP "Uncle Herb"

As an absolute rookie 1st year rep at DG Herb asked me to come to Westboro. I sat across the desk and he asked me "how come you speak Japanese?" when I answered that I'd done mormon mission there he said "the best god damned salesman in this company was a mormon, you guys can really sell."...and boom, a career a was born. Herb gave me the break I needed and I will be forever grateful. My deepest sympathy and may God bless.

As a Branch Manager in the Philadelphia area in the 80s, I was often tasked with taking Herb on a customer visit when he wanted to visit Philly:-). Quite a character.

I spoke to him a little over a month ago he sent me a message on Facebook asking me to call him. He knew I'd become a fishing nut after DG and I mentioned I'd seen the photo of him on his FB page with a large striped bass. He said just loved chasing stripers in the big freshwater lakes of the South. And he was really proud of his catch in that photo, That fish is at the top on the food chain, he said. Nothing else can touch it. We talked a little about the old days, and about health stuff...

Wow. So sorry to hear this. He is the reason I went back to college. Told me it was not an option to not have a college education. Wise words from a brilliant man. My thoughts are with his family.

With heavy hearts we say goodbye to Herb. Our hearts,prayers and thoughts are with his family. With Love, Wally & Robin Sipos

•With a heavy heart, I pray for the eternal repose of one who was a man of distinguished humanity. I miss your great sense of humor. Thank you for making me laugh throughout the years. May you rest easy.

Herb was a fire cracker, wonderfully funny, and I am sorry for any sadness you may have Nancy. All my best, Toni Lee

Honored to know & sadly missed.
Love to his beloved Nancy.
