Our condolences to Miranda and Family on the passing of Herdie . I remember when I saw Herdie in the Condo Parking lot one day and he threw me a large bag of Macadamia Nuts . It a great experience to live among a very interesting group of people at the Condos. Joe and Josie Navin

Herster Barres was my friend and mentor for the past 10 years. His boundless energy, his commitment to solving the climate crisis, and his interest in learner centered pedagogy, inspired me to become a climate change educator myself. I was very sad to hear of his passing and I send Miranda my most sincere condolences.
