I fondly remember Hershel from our early years at Northeast Methodist Church in Tampa. He was part of our youth group, and a member of our Sunday School class. His parents and my parents were well-acquainted with each other. I also attended high school with him at Hillsborough High in Tampa, where he was in the grade above me. I remember our social antics after church on Sunday evenings, and our visits to the Redwood Drive-in. I lost touch with Hershel after high school, but would occasionally run in to him during the lunch hour in downtown Tampa. Unfortunately, I have not seen or spoken with Hershel in over 20 years, but my memory of him and his parents remains vivid. They were all good Christian people. My sympathy to his family in their loss.
