Not sure what to say?

I was saddened to hear of the loss of Bill Herman. I worked for his family when I was a teenager. May the memories of him find peace to his family during this holiday season. What a legacy he leaves behind. Thank you for the walk down memory lane.

Ginger and Family, I am so sorry to hear of Bill's passing. I remember Bill very well from various get togethers with our family back in the 60's and 70's. I haven't seen him in many, many years, but one thing I do remember is he was one of the most hard working, nicest and generous man I have ever met. I offer you my heartfelt condolences. May Bill rest in Peace. God Bless you and God Bless Bill.

Sorry for the family's loss. When my oldest was a child, a Poughkeepsie Journal team member took a photo of her at Herman's Christmas display & featured it in the paper. She was just in absolute wonder at all of the magical scenes, and everyone was so sweet to her. We were sad when the place closed, & hope that through the years the family continued to bring each other the same joyous, special little memories that were given to so many of us within the community through the years.

Chris and family,
I am so sorry for your loss. Heaven has a new angel. Keeping all of you in my thoughts and prayers.
Sincerely,
Claire Hirst Griggs

I loved the Winter Wonderland while growing up in Pleasant Valley. Condolences to the entire Herman family and especially Cindy.

Nancy and I offer our condolences to the Herman Family for your loss. Your loss is also our loss. Bill was a great man and wonderful person to be around. We fondly remember him showing up at our home at odd hours, mostly during the holidays, with a poinsettia or some other type of flower arrangement. Welcoming him, we would sit at the table drinking a glass or two of wine.... talking late into the night (sorry Ginger for keeping him out late).
Bill, as I sit here typing this, I want...

We are so sorry for your loss. Some of our best memories are from when we worked for Bill at the nursery.
With our sincerest condolences,
Doug Rogers and Lorraine Bono
