My heartfelt sympathy to the entire family. My working relationship with Herbie goes back to 1975 at Olliver/Pilcher and until I left in 1992. What a fun guy and lots of good memories. He always joked and gave me a bad time. Many blessings,Marge Jantz (Casa Grande, AZ)

Herb was a great guy and fun to work with. Herb had a wonderful sense of humor and loved to tell jokes. He was the best dancer at our Christmas parties.
Always ready to help. He will be missed by many people.
