  2. Herb you came into my life when I was 10 years old and you took on the responsibility of being my dad. You taught some very hard life lessons that needed to be taught. You were always there when I needed you. I enjoyed coming to auctions with you. We even worked together to sell cars so I could earn money, I would clean them and try to sell. I have many awesome memories of us going snowmobiling, playing dominos and pool every Friday night. We went for Friday suppers for about 25 years, we had some pretty exciting times with family and friends. Many awesome memories I will hold close to my heart. Thank you Herb for being my dad. I will miss you so much❤️ My sympathy to the rest of the family and friends. RIP Herb.
