I had the honor and pleasure of working with Herb at SNET. He was a great co-worker and a good friend. We had many laughs and I can only think of good times with "Herbie". My thoughts and prayers go out to all of his family and friends. Miss you Herb.

My thoughts and prayers are with you. Herb was a good friend for many years when I lived in CT. I have great memories of our times on four wheeling adventures, holidays on the Cape and volunteering in the PVFD. He was a great guy and a true friend!

I worked with Herb at Sonitrol. He was a great guy. I enjoyed his laugh and jokes. My heart goes out to his family.

Dear Todd & Keith,

Our deepest sympathy to you. Your dad was like the mailman, nothing would keep him from coming over every night to hang out in the barn with Richie. You knew exactly what they were watching on tv or if they went somewhere. He was a great part of our life especially Richies. The stories are endless. Your dad will be deeply missed by all.
