Beverly just found out about Herb. We are so sorry for your loss. We will fondly remember all the time we spent with the two of you, especially how Herb went out of his way to pick us up on many occasions. The visit to the gardens, the meals and just visiting will always be with us. Love, Barbara & Bob Schoenburg
