In Memoriam
Michael R. Herring
Oct. 22, 1964 - Aug. 10, 2008
Hendricks County Democrats had the good fortune this year to enlist Michael Herring, a thoughtful man with contagious optimism and energy, to serve as Secretary for the organization.
His interest in social values and citizen responsibility was strongly and consistently evidenced. He was good at creating dialog - both listening well and conveying ideas in a respectful, personable, clear and positive style that made him a pleasure to be with
and work with. He brought dedication, careful consideration, reliability and collaboration to the leadership team, and he is already very missed.
Michael, a Senior Manager of Operations for Fed Ex, lived in Avon with his wife Vanessa and their sons, Nick and Marvis. They are a family with lots of reason to be proud of each other, and they clearly are lovingly connected -- which right now heightens their loss. They remain in our hearts and in our thoughts.
We are most grateful for the gift of Michael -- his time, talents, service and friendship.
In lieu of flowers, the family is asking
that donations be made to
the Michael R. Herring Scholarship Fund
c/o Huntington Bank.
