Condolence: While I didn't know Mr. Herring, I know his son Bill. Bill has shared some wonderful stories of his father and his service to our country. Its very clear Mr. Herring is a true hero. Condolences and prayers for peace during this difficult time.

Condolence: Red was an inspiration to us "youngsters" as he could dance with the best of us and rarely missed a big dance. He was of the greatest generation as Tom Brokaw wrote. I am privileged to have known Red and will miss him very much.

Condolence: Big Red was a fine husband, father and grandfather to his family and a true friend to many. He had the genteel manners of the traditional southern gentleman...a breed rarely seen these days. He was a true Christian who exemplified his faith in how he lived his life and treated others...he was one to be emulated. We're thankful for the influence he had on those whose lives he touched.
