Herb- you will forever be in our hearts and in our minds. Physically gone but you will forever be etched in our hearts. You were the first person who welcomed us when we moved to the neighborhood. We will always treasure those memories. There isn't any day that - looking at your place across the street that we would see your smiling face ever ready to give us a wave and kisses blown- that - we will definitely miss!!! We will miss that guy who loves sitting at his front porch basking in the sun and just loves to watch cars and people come by - ready to wave at anyone he might know. We love you, Herb!!! Thank you for being a part of our lives!!! Till we meet again!!!

My Dear Uncle Wayne, you always brought a smile and a chuckle to everyone you met. Our family has been greatly rewarded by your presence and your love. Many times you called to cheer us up and find out how we were doing. When times were difficult or sad, you came to hold us up, so we could get through the hard times. You will never be forgotten and live in our hearts forever. God hold you in his arms, and hear our voices, as we mourn your passing from earth.

I only met Herb a few times and found him to be a kind person with a wonderful sense of humor. That said, I will always be grateful for the love and warmth he showed toward my Mego. That made him a KING who will surely see his reward in heaven.

You could always bring a smile to my face, sometimes without saying anything. I'll never forget your stories or your gifted way of finding exactly the right words for any occasion. You're dearly missed, but your memory will always live on with those who knew and loved you.

Until we meet again.

It was always fun when you where waiting for me to get home so you could give me grief and I could give it back and those belly laughs we would have, brings a smile to my face .

Herb Slover was my Best Friend. He has been a blessing in my life. Since moving across the street from him our friendship was from God. He Loved Me and I Loved him. Herb did everything he could do to help me, and I did everything I could do to help Him and Margaret, which I also Love Dearly. Since Herb and Margaret came into my life they helped me to become a better Man. Herb our friendship will never end, and nothing could ever stop what became between our hearts. Thank You Heavenly Father for Herbert Slover. We will be together again.
