So sorry to learn of Herman's death. I remember eating supper at your house so many times and how he would put ketchup on everything, always wearing his overalls and how he and I called Camille, Cornbread. He was one of a kind. I'll keep you in my thoughts and prayers. Love to you all. The video Pam did is just beautiful.

I miss our nightly chats about the weather, our cattus, and our childhood years. I will never again look at a swimming pool and not think of it being a cement pond nor will I forget that a cat is a cattus. You danced to the beat of a different drummer and your unique personality will forever live on in my memories as well as the memories of all you met.
Sincerest condolences and much love to all the family.
Our phone conversations always ended with "I better get off the telly now so I can get some good ole cattus country rest and followed with I Love You" Rest now and I Love You, Herman Jr.
Gone for a time but never forgotten.

Dear Mrs. Mary Ellen, Camille, Ann, Michael and family,
We were so sorry to hear of Herman's passing recently. He certainly will be missed. He was always so kind to us, and we looked forward to seeing him when we went out to eat at the Sandwiche Castle or the Huddle House. In fact, the last time we saw him was at the Huddle House back in early Jan. Our thoughts and prayers are certainly with you. May our awesome God, who only can, give you now the strength, comfort and peace you need. God bless you all. We love you.
Love,
Scott, Terry, Ellen, T.C.Conant
