Following his military service, he served with the Hampton City Fire Department for 28 years, retiring as a captain in 1996.Often a man of few words, he still exuded warmth & love. He had the best sense of humor you never saw coming. He will be fondly remembered as a hero, a giver, a man of hospitality. He served his family, his community, and his home.
Edward leaves behind his wife of 18 years, Judith Herb, his children Tammy (Tommy) Minor, Edward Herb Jr, Victoria (Ryan) Edwards, Kasey (Chad) Vaillancourt, stepsons Justin & Eric Knuteson, and grandchildren Jeremy Dane, Travis, Preston and Ellis.
