I am so very sorry to learn of Herb's passing. We worked together when I was an attorney at Schiff Hardin. Herb was an excellent attorney and an even better person.

As an outside vendor for Anixter, I had the opportunity to work with Herb on a variety of real estate transactions for more than 20 years.
He always treated me with respect and kindness and I learned a lot from him. Herb was a special person who will be greatly missed.

I was so sad to learn of Herb's passing. I had the pleasure of working with him for 15 years at Anixter. Herb was a kind and generous man and a wonderful attorney. I learned a lot from him over the years and my life is enriched having known him. God bless you Herb.

Good morning, Seymour,
My brother Rocky emailed me about your family's loss. I am saddened to hear about your brother. Even though for decades our connection has not been strong - largely due to geography - I have nothing but fond memories of our childhood years together (I can't seem to shake these memories nor do I want to) and wished to express my condolences.

I was saddened when I learned of Herb's death this afternoon. After supporting Herb in the Legal Department at Anixiter for many years ~ he definately taught me what the true phrase "attention to detail" meant. My sincerest sympathies go out to his family.

I am indeed sad to hear of his passing. My sincere condolences to his family and to all who knew him. We all have lost a good friend.

Please accept our deepest sympathies. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family at this time. We knew Herb Peck for a short period of time for we were introduced at Mary Kay and Sy's wedding. He struck me as a very sincere and loving man. May your memories of him be with you forever.

Herb was a wonderful man and a pleasure to work with. I discovered Ixtapa because of Herb, and every time I walk the beach in Ixtapa, I will see his smiling face.
