Mary, I hope that I will turn out to be as good a man as Jack was. His friendship, guidance, and encouragement have been cherished throughout my life, despite our time together being relatively brief. And YES! I wish George could still be cutting my hair.
It was a pleasure to be around Jack and Mary over the last several months. His humor and stubbornness were his best qualities. You will be missed greatly

Mary & the entire Herrick family; Any thing that I might say here...will not alleviate...the deep hole in all your hearts..by the loss of a husband, father and grandfather. But please take comfort, in the knowledge that your loss is Gods gain. Jack is now back in the arms of his Creator...to live in peace and love for all eternity. Hopefully we will someday join him. Rest in peace old friend. George Hays
I will remember Jack for his pleasant and engaging personality. He loved his family and was proud to see them all as he would tell me of their frequent gatherings. I enjoyed our discussions of fishing and golf and will remember how Jack enjoyed playing the piano with our young daughter when we were at a Christmas party a number or years ago.. He will be missed by many. Mary and family, you are in our thoughts and prayers.
We here at the YMCA want to wish our sincerest condolences to the Herrick family. Jack was a great life-time member of the YMCA and was a pleasure to know and be around. He will be sorely missed at the YMCA! Our thoughts and prayers are with the entire Herrick family.
What a wonderful man who guided his four beautiful and talented daughters through life and athletics. It was such a pleasure to see his support at all the activities at JC with Mary. He will be remembered with great fondness and appreciation.

He will always be Coach to me. He taught me so much about softball and coaching. In addition to the years I played for him, I will always remember when he took me to watch a softball tournament in Castle Creek. He would ask me what I would do in all the different situations. He taught me how to think the game and how to coach. I remember in H. S. When he tore the corner off of an award I received and tucked it in his wallet. He will always hold a special place in my heart.
