To the family of Mr. Herbie Cunningham. I was so very sorry to hear of his passing. I will always remember in my youth going to the concerts at the Municipal Auditorium. We would go up the elevator and sit up front before the doors opened to the public. I have fond memories growing up with you all on Glenwood Avenue. My deepest empathy goes out to you. God heals.

Wow! Unfortunately, I just learned of Herb's passing today! Herb was my brother in Christ and we worked together in the community when I was stationed in Charleston. Herb was a funny guy who told great stories and a tireless worker for those who were disenfranchised. Herb left a great legacy for all of us to follow. RIP my bro and thanks for being a voice for the voiceless. My condolences to Sister Cynthia and the girls.

Stunned to hear of Herbie's passing. He was influential in my life. As a teenager working at DeeDex, Herbie helped me navigate my teenage years and was always a wisen and spirited soul who knew how to talk to a young man in ways that were meaningful.
