Aunt Robbie,
So sorry to hear of Herschel’s passing. You are in our thoughts and prayers. Love, The Apple Family
Aunt Robbie my heart aches for you and the pain and heartache you are going through. I know that God will give you strength to get through it. I am so glad that God sent you Uncle Herschel to take care of you when Uncle Monroe died, just like he will take care of you now. I love you and always will, I am here for you if you need me to be. May God keep you safe and wrapped in his arms.
Herschel will be greatly missed by me and my family. I have been his neighbor all my life, and attended church with him since I was a small child. He was my cousin, but was much more like my own Grandpa. I always loved singing with him at Piney Grove Church. I have great memories of helping him and my dad on the farm, along side his sweet wife Robbie. I have no doubts that Herschel is in Heaven with the one he loved most, our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. I will miss Herschel greatly. My thoughts and prayers are with you Robbie in this time of grief.
Love, Kaylyn Chandler
