I’m so sorry to hear about Herbie’s passing. I worked with Herbie for many years in the OR. He was wonderful with patients coming to the OR and had a very calming effect on them. He was a hard worker and would do anything that I asked of him. I will miss him!!!

Herbie, was a great friend and coworker.  I worked in the OR with him from the day he started until I retired in Dec. 2013.  I originally was an OR Secretary and ended my career working with the computers.  He was a wonderful person and everyone loved him.  May God bless his family and give you strength in these days.  Love & Prayers Jean (Bennetch) Grover.
