We were very privileged to have you as a son-in-law Herbie. Such a lovely man. not a bad thing to say about anyone. Always smiling and ready for a party. Loving husband to our dear daughter and loving dad to our darling Granddaughters. Missing you. RIP Hilda and Dave

I got to know Herbs through a close friend. My contact with him was always rewarded by his warm, chilled and friendly manner. I am sad to hear of his passing, he was such a lovely gent. My thoughts are with his family and kids. Taken too young. He will be missed greatly X

I knew Herbie from Eastfields estate. He was the nicest bloke you could ever meet, always happy and never had a bad word to say. RIP Herbie X

I went to Eastfields High School with Herbert. Lovely friendly guy. Although I haven't seen him in years the sad news has shocked me. My thoughts are with his family. Much love xxx

A Measure of A Man The measure of a man is not determined By his show of outward strength Or the volume of his voice Or the thunder of his actions Or of his intellect or academic abilities It is seen rather in terms of the love that he has For his family and for everyone The strength of his commitments The genuineness of his friendships The sincerity of his purpose The quiet courage of his convictions The fun, laughter, joy and happiness he gives to his family and to others His love of life His patience and his honesty And his contentment with what he has - Grady Poulard I am proud to have had Herbie as my Brother in law and as a man he measured well. I am so grateful for the love and happiness he gave my sister, for my two wonderful nieces he fathered and for entering our family wholeheartedly with love, fun and happiness. His laid back, positive attitude and fun loving personality and approach to life was something to live up too. xxx

Thank you for setting up this memorial to Herbie. We hope that you find it a positive experience developing the site and that it becomes a place of comfort and inspiration for you to visit whenever you want or need to.

I am I and you are you, whatever we were to each other that we still are. Speak to me in the easy way which you always used. Why should I be out of mind because I am out of sight? Life means all that it ever meant, it is the same as it ever was.
