Jiggs: We are all going to miss you. You were a great friend. You brought your love of children to the hearts of literally thousands of kids over your long career as a Shrine Clown. The world was a happier place because of your presence. Rest well my friend...Well done good and faithful servant.

Uncle Jiggs. To me a special person. Memories? All good. I especially remember as a kid, a wild and crazy boat ride on Leech lake. Never got to "pet the pig" during your clown years but I remember seeing the pictures when you visited the kids in the hospital.

Uncle Jiggs, We are going to miss you so much. I remember getting together at Christmas time, either at our home or your home or Grandma and Grandpas's house, and listening to the Jingle Bell rock song play in the basement. I remember you making the animals with the balloons for us and then our grandchildren. Your are such a special person and will be greatly missed. We love you.

Jiggs, thanks for sharing. In 42 years of Shrine Circus performances, you have made a lot of folks laugh and inspired many of us younger clowns. You have been a good friend and will be greatly missed. The circus is about ten days away and as you know, the show must go on. You will be there with us, not just in thought, but also in our actions as we continue doing what you showed us. We dedicate the 2010 Shrine Circus to you my friend and when we are out there, I'm sure if you listen closely, you will hear a "Yooo-Hooo" or two. Za-Ga-Zig Shrine Clown Unit

This is to a very special friend. When we first meet i remember the smile you brought to so many kids of all ages. The four traveled the state clowning. And always your smile and caring brought happiness to so many. Now one by one the angles have taken you three to a show in heaven so you three can still bring smiles and happiness. I will always remember you ,Ringo and Doc. Your Friends. Blinkie and Marilyn Kay

Jiggs, I will miss you my buddy. Your strength and determination is an inspiration to every clown in the unit. You have left a huge void in the hearts of many however, I am sure that it will be filled with the wonderful memories that you have given to all of us. May we continue your legacy and help keep the smiles that enjoyed your clowning. To Marilyn,Connie and the rest of your family, thank you for sharing Jiggs with us. Pete

Jiggs was one of those people that come along once in a lifetime and stay forever. The smiles he brought to the kids were wonderful but the ones he brought to his fellow clowns were beyond special. We know he was a wonderful husband and father but few got to know Jiggs and those taht did are rewarded for it. Here is a prayer that Jiggs offered to many of his special clowns. As he looks down upon us, we know that he is in the Big Top in the Sky bring cheers from all the people there! A Clown Blessing May your nose be red and shiny, And your smile always bright. May your cheeks be nice and rosy, Your eyes sparkle in the light. May your shoes be always to big, Your costume be perma-pressed. Your heart overflow with laughter, Every time your clown is dressed. May face paint be at the ready, and your balloons be "easy-blow". May children run to greet you' Wherever you may go. Until we can bump noses again Jiggs!

Herman, as a good friend of Marilyn and Connie, I always felt I was your friend too. I only wish I had been able to see you "clown" but I know you must have been the very best clown on this earth. One more thing, where you are going, there will be lots and lots of "free food" for you to share with all your friends and fellow clowns. Love, Betty and Doc

Marilyn and Family we would like to extend our deepest sympathies to all of you. Oh, the many happy memories I have of Herman, sharing his talents when I was an officer in Rainbow for Girls, so many years ago. More recent the many smiles he brought with his little pig and blowing up the balloons for the parades. He will be missed, but we will retain these happy memories. And even more remember those happy events. May God Bless all of you.

I can see that God had given you special gifts and a truly special daughter who gave me a wonderful perspective on death and I will pray that as she goes thru this time that she holds on to those truths she knows so well. See you in heaven

Bill Damman posted a condolence

My deepest love goes to all of you. Hermy was in a class all of his own. I,like my grandfather (Ringo) respected him in the highest regard. He always treated me like family and I will always have nothing but happy memories of him. I am sorry I could not make his services, I have exhausted my leave from work with my last surgery. Of all that have gone before him from the jokers, Hermy brings the most tears. Marilyn, just so you know, I feel the same for you. If in any way I can ever help you, please let me know. I don't get up to grandmas as much as I should,(she can confirm that) but I am never to busy when there, I can't swing by:) Love to you all, Bill

Didn't see this earlier, sorry. Just wanted to say Vegas with you guys was a blast - esp. when Herman took me to his special Lucky 7 machine and I immediately won $75!! We just laughed and laughed. It was wonderful! Will always remember that moment with Herman. He will be missed for sure. Love you guys, Jody
