Nahum Hersom

I am sorry to hear of Nahum's passing. I remember him as Jim's dad who could make anything from metal.

I will always remember my phone conversation with Mr. Nahum back in 2008. What a delightful person to listen & talk to. He shared stories of his childhood & life with me as if I was an old, old friend, when actually this was the first time I ever talked to him & only called to inquire about his book.
My Condolences to his family, I'm sure he will be sadly missed by all.

Every time I pick up a hammer I will remember the short time I was blessed to spend with "Grandpa"

Hammer well

Thank you Grandpa for your metalworking and life teachings. My class with you in 2003 was one of the most memorable experiences of my life. We will all miss you.

How glad I am to see an opportunity to share our words. I think of my friend every day. What an inspiration he was to growing old. Kind, optimistic and active as long as possible. Always open minded and loving. I miss you. Miss Julie

For those of you that knew Grandpa you were indeed lucky. For those of you that got to attend a metal working class of Grandpa YOU WERE VERY LUCKY.
I will never forget his skill as a metal worker or his great stories that he told about his life during his class teaching repuosse metal metalwork. He liked being called Grandpa by everyone. He truly treated everyone like a grandchild. He loved people & teaching his beloved Repuosse.

We will miss our visits with Nahum! What a wonderful teacher he was!

I and N.Innis St.will miss you.
Until we meet again my friend ;

Our deepest condolences and love. Nahum was a wonderful man and will be missed beyond measure. He was an amazing mentor and teacher, both spiritually and materially. His love of the work will continue on in his students and their students. Thank you so much Nahum. The memories of you and your shop will always be a comfort.

You will be missed my friend, Percy Wheeler, Wheel builder, Portland Maine

My condolences on your loss - know that "Grandpa" touched many lives and he will never be forgotten by those of us who were his students.
That a man share his craft, he shares his spirit...

Many years ago he had those old time peddal cars and my brothers and I would race them up and down the drive way for hours. And all the cherries we picked and canned. When one of us went into the hospital grandma would come flying into the weating room dragging poor Grandpa behind her determined to be one of the first to hold the latest edition of the family. I love those grandparents very much.
