My sincere condolences to the Schwenk family. I have many memories of my association with Herman in the various board and committee meetings we attended as participants for our organizations. He taught me much and always acted in a fair and considerate way for all concerned. Again my sincere condolences. George Andrews Former AFREA and REA board member.

Marcella and Family, I got to know Herman when I became a delegate for Alberta Wheat Pool. He was a man with a passion for working together, and was not afraid to speak his mind. Agricultural politics will miss him. Terry Lee Degenhardt

Marcella & Family: Please accept my condolences on the passing of Herman. I so enjoyed his stories and contributions both on the PC board and whenever we saw him at a family function. He loved getting updates from me on Dillin and Chantelle's twins. He really did love knowing there were so many great grand children surrounding his family.

My sincere condolences go out to Marcella and family on the passing of our dear friend Herman. Distance prevented me from visiting but the once and my wife Wendy and I were treated like family on that occasion. It was an absolute honor and pleasure to have Herman rejoin our ATCO Electric CPC Committee while I served as chairman. His experience and insight in the matters at hand made our jobs a lot easier. He had chaired that committee in the past during difficult times. We always knew that after our noon break that Herman would sneak a nap at the meeting table but he always insisted that he never missed a word of the discussion while doing that. Tee hee. May you rest in peace my friend. Sincerely Alfred Johnson

Dear Marcella and all the family, I am so very sorry to hear of Herman's passing. He and I butted heads more than once over his PrairieView Column in the ECA Review! At the end of it all there was a mutual respect and understanding. I appreciated Herman and the huge impression he made. I could see all the love he had for his family, his community, his province and his country. He was one of a kind and I know you will miss him dearly. I will hold you in my prayers in the days to come. My heart is with you Bonnie Danylyshen

These photos are from my last visit to the farm a few years ago. It saddens me that I haven’t been able to get across the border to see you in person since Covid, but know that I think of you often and pray for peace of mind and spirit for both Grandma and Grandpa. Love, Amber
