In Loving Memory of Herbert Torres
It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Herbert Torres, a devoted son, brother, uncle, and friend, who left us too soon.
Born with a steady hand and a tireless work ethic, Herb spent his life as a low voltage security electrician, a trade he took great pride in, both in his work and passing his skills and expertise on to all he worked with. His dedication to his craft reflected the kind of man he was — hardworking, reliable, and always willing to lend his skills to help others.
Above all, Herb loved his family deeply. He shared a special bond with his beloved mother, Marieta, whose love was his foundation and comfort throughout his life. He carried the memory of his late brother, Fernando, in his heart every day, honoring him through quiet strength and steadfast loyalty to his mother and son.
To his nephew Danny and grand-niece Penelope, Herb was more than family — he was a constant source of encouragement, reliability, and care. His presence filled every room with warmth, and his absence will be felt deeply by all who knew him.
Herbert’s life reminds us that greatness is not measured by fame or fortune, but by the love we give and the lives we touch. He will be remembered for his honesty, humility, and how dedicated he was to everyone and everything he loved.
He is survived by his loving mother Marieta, nephew Danny, grand-niece Penelope, and a circle of family and friends who will forever cherish his memory.
May he rest in peace, reunited with his brother Fernando, and may his light continue to shine in the hearts of those who loved him.
