My condolences to Ms. Bette & family. Herman lived a very long life and is now at peace in Heaven. I only knew him about a year, and loved to hear him laugh. He always seemed to like when I visited him, always reached out to hold my hand. I will remember him for that & how he dearly loved the rootbeer & pie that Ms. Bette brought for him...
