Obituary for SCHON
SCHON, HERBERT MAYER 1931~2014 Herb Schon, avid cyclist, skier and baker of rugelach, died on June 30 after a massive stroke. Herb was born in Newark, NJ and lived for many years in New York City, where after a career in advertising he founded Grandma's Recipe Rugelach, a specialty bakery. He retired in Santa Fe, NM in 1997, and within a few years had revived the Grandma's brand. At age 75, Herb indulged his passion for cycling by riding from California to New Hampshire, and from Oregon to Southern California at 80. At 77 he was struck by a car while cycling in Albuquerque, and a year later he suffered multiple broken bones and skull fractures after a high-speed bike crash in Los Alamos. But nothing could stop Herb, and in both cases he was back in the saddle within months, even riding a century with the helicopter crew who had saved his life. When he wasn't on his bike he could be found skiing, working out at the gym or making rugelach deliveries to his many customers. Herb was known for his integrity and humor, but it was his fierce tenacity and love for life that will continue to serve as an inspiration to his friends. He is survived by his wife, Irene; his son, Peter; daughter-in-law, Amanda, and granddaughter, Greta.

Obituary for CHERVIN
CHERVIN, GARY PHILIP Gary Chervin, age 57, passed away suddenly at home on June 7, 2014 of natural causes. He is survived by his partner-in-life, Bruce Bush, with whom he lived for almost 35 years. Over that time, Gary and Bruce shared several homes and many beloved dogs and cats. They moved to Hickory, North Carolina, four years ago. Gary graduated from the University of New Mexico and TVI, settled in Albuquerque and worked as a teacher at Laguna-Acoma HS and, later, as an information technology executive at a life insurance company. Besides partying with his friends, Gary enjoyed gardening, music, and walking with the dogs, especially in the mountains. Gary was an impeccably honest man with strong morals and a deep sense of justice. He seemed quiet and reserved, but those who knew him well got to enjoy his wicked sense of humor and appreciate his many acts of kindness. His favorite charities were animal humane societies, homeless shelters, and wilderness protection organizations. But Gary often helped friends in need directly and without hesitation. He and his gentle nature and radiant smile will be greatly missed. Friends may wish to view a slideshow of his life at: youtu.be/SzIXbwidqEM In lieu of flowers, donations in Gary's memory may be made to the Unitarian Universalist Church of Catawba Valley (UUCCV), PO Box 9164, Hickory, NC 28603.
