Cousin Herbie was such a beautiful soul. He lit a special light in everyone's heart that he met. His adventures and love of life was infectious. He was always very affectionate and loving. He will be sorely missed. I will definitely miss the talks of his travels and compare notes to our experiences and inspirations around the world. May your soul inspire all others, that you came in contact with. Love you Cousin Herbie. I was looking for a poem to express you and I find the best expression is to let the music's poetry speak for itself. RIP
Here's a tribute to Cousin Herbie. John Lennon songs played on the Lute, along with other beautiful expressions played on the Lute.
