To the Herr Family,
We always enjoyed time with Tim. He was a great conversationalist and always kind to us. We spent many a Thanksgiving with Tim and he even took us to dinner once on our wedding anniversary in Lititz. Now he is with his Rita and his beloved daughter, Ann. Our sympathies are with all of you who loved him and enjoyed his company.
