Dear Violet, Shannon & Sheldon,
I am so heart broken to hear of Herbie's passing. He was a wonderful man that inspired me to become a providing citizen to society and do something with my life. If it wasn't for the love and mentoring of my dear cousin Herbie, I may not be where I am today. He always had words of encouragement for me. I am so sorry that I cannot attend his service, but I will always remember Herbie as the person who gave me the will to survive in this ever so demanding world. I will always love him and think about his gracious words of encouragement when I am feeling down. May the great spirit be with you now at the time of your need. My prayers are with all of you.
