To the Herman Family: My name is Julie Brink I worked at Chapel Hill and your Mom was one of my residents until her passing and I got to know your Dad there also...Bruce was very faithful at coming in to see your Mom. He was a very gentle caring man...And your Mom was a sweetheart too. I also remember you boys. Having had many conversations with Mary Lou while taking care of her I know she and Bruce were very proud of you boys. And the grandchildren were definitely the spice of her life...She talked of them frequently and all the activities they were involved in and how she wished she could go to watch them..
Having lost my Dad in November of 2005 I know how hard times like these are and just wanted to send my sympathy to all of you...My Dad (Harold Newman) is buried in Manchester too he is right there a few plots away from Bruce and Mary Lou that is how I found out about Bruce's passing I seen it on their head stone. Your parents were very special sweet people and heaven got two wonderful angels in your parents. Rest In Peace Bruce and Mary Lou.....

Dear Scott,

I was so sorry to read of your dad's passing. We met him last Aug. at one of our class get-togethers at Pancho's. He happened to be there that night and sat down to shoot the breeze with us for awhile. A very entertaining guy! My deepest sympathies to you, your brothers, and family. God bless

I was sorry to read of Bruce's passing. Bruce and I were cousins. I read the Beacon on the internet since we have lived in Sebring, FL the last 10 years.

Dearest Former Classmates of mine: Brad, Terry and Scott

I'm sorry to hear about the loss of your father. I know he must have been really proud of his son's accomplishments. You three guys were so smart in high school.

I lost my dad when he was 62 and it is a hard one. Keep his memory alive through your children and grandchildren.

Again, I'm sorry to hear about your loss and my family will keep yours in our prayers. God's Peace
