Lydia and Roy: I will NEVER forget flying with your dad and Roy way back around '77. I think we flew around the original Twin Towers. He was such a kind, welcoming person and I learned so much more about him through this beautifully written obituary. Ads you know, there is nothing like losing a parent; I am so sorry. Laura A.

Herb's father Sam was in charge of Camp Lou Emma in Sussex, N.J. and before the regular campers came, he would have me, my father and my uncles enjoy a great weekend at the camp. Herb and his sister Sue were very much into woodlore and I joined them exploring the surrounding hills. Herb was very knowledgeable about many topics and I saw that he was really into what he was doing at a particular time....he enjoyed life to the fullest.

When I became a Police Officer in Carteret, NJ this was the first time I had met The Honorable Herbert Kaplan. He was so distinguished, such a gentleman. I served as his court attendant numerous times, during his breaks I would go with him to his chambers and share a coffee with him. He was also very close friends with my cousin Steve Bok. One day Herb came to my house and asked if I would like to take a flight with him. He had previously told me about his flight experience and I agreed to go and we left for Linden Airport. The flight was extremely encouraging. After this I signed up at Linden Airport and began to take lessons. Mr Kaplan time has gone by so fast and it has been a long time that we had spoken to each other. May you rest in peace my friend and remember you were always loved and respected by everyone.

Mr. Kaplan, such a gentleman. We meet 6 years ago at the barbershop, Oscar cut Mr. Kaplan for many many years, but when Oscar passed away I became his barber. Every appointment was no different, always such a great smile, happy and ready to get rid off all that white thick hair..lol.. There were few times when he felt little down and I used to tell him, "you can´t say you don´t feel good, your too young for that" he used to laugh, Another great moment was when we used to walk next door, I used to put my arm out so he can hold on to me and he used to smile and say "you don´t have to do this, but it´s nice to walk with you.. and we use to laugh.." ..
