Herb added fun, stimulated knowledge and provided support when most needed. So much of significance was shared in a relatively short time, he remains a constant presence in my life.

This is truly an enormous loss. I admired Herb for his quick, if sometimes caustic, wit. His great intellengence and genrousity. He was the best party giver in town. If a friend had something to celebrate, his loft became filled with a joyus crowd and he appeared in fabullous drag. What touched me most about herb at the time and still does now was his unswerving loyalty to friends in trouble. When we all started dying in droves, Herb provided true care and support even to the end. Indeed, he mastered the art of the sensitive but remarkably non-morose funeral oration. Somehow he managed to console us and engouraged us to go on. A real inspiration. He belongs with the angels.
