I just found this notice.

Dear family of Mr. Herps:

I would not be the man I am today if I had not had the good fortune to have Mr. Herps as my teacher at Burrell High School.

My sincere and heartfelt condolences go out to your family at his passing.

I have quoted him so many times over the years that my wife feels like she had him as a teacher! It was his humanity that touched all of us.

Dear Robert - thank you for sharing your gifts with all of us. You lit a flame in my heart to always seek the truth....even if it meant reading all the lies. All my best, David Kowal, Class of 1972, Burrell High School
