It was hurtful hearing about the sickness and the passing of Herbert. I know he's not hurting anymore but the family are hurting very much. During this pandemic, it's very difficult to properly mourn so family, please stay close and keep in contact with each other. And as Herbert's birthday approaches, let's celebrate the way he would. Gone...but never forgotten.
