Rest Hubert, until you hear at dawn, the low, clear reveille of God. Thank you for your service to this nation. U.S. Army.
My condolences to the family. My Dad ate meals with Hubert at Sedgwick Plaza and I always enjoyed talking to Hubert. Martha Long Jones.
Hubert was a friend and I liked Hubert very much. When I came to breakfast each morning, he always commented about liking my short skirts. I think I will remember him whenever I wear one of those skirts.
I’m sorry he’s gone, he was such a good person.
I was on his floor and I will miss him dearly. I was very surprised when I saw his obituary.
He always watched movies at 6:00 pm and he was just a good guy.
– Jane Palmer, resident of Sedgwick Plaza
Hubert and I were classmates at Prairie Home High School. We graduated in May 1958. We received First Communion and Confirmation at Cedron.
He could not have served in the Korean War, It ended in 1953. He was a great guy and I will miss him.
