Dear Martha and Family,

I haven't seen y'all in years, but I have not forgotten you. Just a week before Herb passed, I saw your nephew Bud and asked him about you and Herb.

I started hauling gasoline to Herb when I was 13 and now I am 60. I will always remember him because he was kind of quite and had kinda a dry sense of humor. I enjoyed delivering to him so much, that it did not seem like work.

To your children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren I say study the life of Herbert A. Fleming, because he was one of the best role models for the young that I have ever seen.

Martha, Mother is still alive and still living in the same house in Richmond, Daddy Tom passed away in 1998. Carol & I have been married 40 years and been in Needville 40 years. We have three children and six grandchildren who all live within one mile of us.

With deepest sympathy,

When I think of Damon folks who made an impression on our lives, I have to remember the Sinclair station run by your parents. My dad, Nelson Winebrenner, was employed there by Herbert for a short while. So many memories of what Herbert did for our little town takes me back down memory lane. We returned back to Damon about 5 years ago and bought the old homeplace of Velma Griffith and built a home on that site. Our little town is proud of folks like your dad and what he did for keeping it going. My mom did not want to leave Damon so we moved back to assist her. She will be 87 this June and is still able to get around and live by herself. When we heard of Herbert's passing, we were saddened that another had left our world. Our sympathy to all of the family from folks still living in Damon. Please give your mother a hug from friends who care.##imported-begin##Dorothy Booth Winebrenner, Mrs. Nelson##imported-end##

Ms. Fleming & Family,
Let me begin by saying I am sorry for your loss and let you know that we share in it too. I hope I can carrying on the tradition that Herbert and the rest of the founding fathers of the Damon Volunteer Fire Department started. I have been Chief now for 13 years and have my oldest son in the dept with me and my youngest wanting to follow. I can remember as a child growing up and going to the station and seeing him there. He always had a kind word for us kids. You are in our hearts and prayers as always.

To Martha Fleming and Family,

I grew up in Damon out in the country and remember your father well. Being a small child at time I remember he was always so nice to me.....and always had a smile on his face for everyone. When he left the gas station, Damon was never the same!! My Mother and Father were Jerry and Frances, and my brothers were Gilbert and Jerry.
I send my condolences to you and your loved ones.

With deepest Sympathy,
