That's terrible to hear.

Just recently I was thinking about which
of his photos of Stevie to remove from one
of my rooms. They're great, but I'm just
tired of them. Decisions...

I believe he emailed me a time or two. He
seemed like a nice fellow. He certainly had
talent.

Well this is my experience with Herbie. My son Sean asked me what I wanted for Christmas, I told him I wanted the 2008 Stevie calendar. I had the 2007 and he had already put out 08 and 09 calendars. I figured I would get 08 and then get 09 later on. So he sent the money but I didn't get the calendar. He e-mailed us and said he was spending the holidays with Stevie and her family and would get it out as soon as he got back. I still didn't get the calendar. So I told Sean I would e-mail him one more time and then I'm done with it. Well he had sent the calendar but i didn't know that he had sent it. So he e-mailed me back and super apologized for the mess and not only sent me the 08 calendar we paid for but also sent me an 09 calendar for free. So I didn't get it for christmas but I was super happy to get both like that. It was very sweet of him to do that for me.

Can someone post the news source link? Something this serious deserves an official confirmation. Thanks.

As far as I know there are just the facebook comments on Jessi's page:

Nixi Nicks: Well, lost another good one. At this point I don't know how death still gets to me. A man who was very close to me, my family, my father, passed away. He was family. I love you, Herby. You will be in my prayers.

Lori Nicks: It was a tough one, my angel... I'm sorry for you and your dad, especially... but at least we have his legacy.... beautiful photos to remember him by.. God bless you, Herbie....

Mary Torrey-DeVitto: Wow, I just can't believe it…Yes he will be remembered. Love you Herbie, Rest in Peace, my Friend...

Oh no....how sad. He will be missed. I was lucky to have hung out with him many years ago. Such a great guy and a great photographer! Will always appreciate his work and may he rest in peace.

This is just a fan site (Peter's) just like mine. He trolls the web and Google Alerts for information just like me. Really, we're not as special as we like to think we are.

We really need someone more official (a major outlet, at the very least) to speak on behalf of someone's death, especially when they're this close to the band and the many fans who have met Herbie in person.
