A MESSAGE FROM THE FAMILY
Herbert W. Pooler, beloved father, grandfather, brother, uncle, cousin, and friend passed away at the age of 69 on November 22, 2022 in Colorado Springs, Colorado. He was born in Colorado Springs, Colorado on December 17, 1952; he was the first born of fraternal twins who also had an elder sister born to the late Henry and Evelyn Pooler.  Herb started working for the City of Colorado Springs Utilities when he was just 18 years old and continued with the City, moving his way up to become the Barricade Supervisor, for over thirty years. After “retiring” Herb continued to work, creating a business, Traffic Data Resources, with his lifelong close friend and working in the pro-shop at the Springs Ranch Golf Course until their recent closing; until his untimely death, he was working at the pro-shop at the Antler Creek Golf Course.  Family and friends were extremely important to him in his life.
