I thought of Taras and the Herbowy family today, unaware of his passing. My belated, but sincere condolences go out to Taras' many friends and loved ones. Meeting and getting to know Taras, his brothers Dan & Nestor and their wonderful family during my 14 years ('82-96) in the Utica area is one of the many good fortunes and fond memories I often recall to this day. R.I.P. Dr. Herbowy.

We were saddened to learn about Taras' passing. He was a wonderful man who gave so much to others. He will surely be missed. Dr. Herbowy's legacy will live on in the light and lives of all he touched.
Peace to you at this difficult time.
Love,
J. Michael Rock and Family

Dear Herbowy family
I was so saddened to hear of Dr. Herbowys passing. He was a wonderful man and Administrator.
I worked for the UCSD at Jones school as a teaching assistant for many years and remember all the children when they attended there.
Taras was always very nice to me and very helpful. It was a pleasure to work for him.
He will be missed by many .

My friend, Dan Bielicki, notified me of Taras'passing today. On my trips to Utica over the years, I occasionally would run into him He would always ask about my family and how life was going. Like Nestor, Daniel and Roger, he touched many lives.
We shall miss his humor and benevolent spirit and extend condolences to his family.

Janet, Nestor and Daniel,
I was very sorry to read about Taras's passing. As a neighborhood kid I fondly remember the important role the Herbowy Family played in our little community. And by the way, we all tuned out pretty well.
Taras was a senior member of the team and he always had an interesting perspective. I can tell that didn't change much because he had a lot to give. I wish you all well as you as you create a new normal and may Roger and Taras continue to watch over your family.
Kindest personal regards,

I had the good fortune of knowing Taras since the eighth grade. He was a great person from a wonderful family. He was also a tireless public servant who brought integrity, brains and compassion to the many years of public service he gave. He was one of the best in our local history and will be missed. May God bless him.

Janet my deepest sympathy goes out to you and your entire family. I was on my way to my daughters in Jamestown, NY when I received a call about Taras's passing. Needless to say I was absolutely shocked. I will always remember how fairly he treated me and what a great person he was to work for. Family was always number one. Unfortunately I will be unable to pay my respects since I will be at my daughters, but rest assure you and your family will be in my thoughts and prayers.
Sincerely Dick Rasi
