Teresa, Matthew & Kaitlin.....Herbie was a good man with a great sense of integrity. He was always looking in on my sister's coffee shop on Washington & Prytania and was always a welcoming presence when I would see him there. Our condolences to you and your family and our heartfelt prayers at your loss. May the perpetual Light shine upon him!
