Herbert worked as an electrician through IBEW local 46,(as did his father and his son Robert), for 36 years. He enjoyed retirement spending his time traveling, family get togethers, and the occasional cruise. It was important to him to stay busy keeping up his property, mowing, cutting firewood, building, painting and repairing things around the house. He cherished his local friends where they could help each other or just shoot the breeze. He also spent time and effort taking care of his wife Carole in her failing health. It was important to Herb that your work ethic was your personal signature that you put your best foot forward. He strived to make sure his boys would be honorable men and good providers for their families.
