What joy today: the Installation of Pr. Dean Herberts

At St. Paul’s and St. John’s, Dieterich IL. And at the reception afterwards, I notice this man that bore a striking resemblance to Ernie Garbe. I almost said something to him, but figured: “Nah, what are the chances?” Later though, I wrote Dean to ask if he DID have any Garbe’s in his congregation, and he said “yup.” ACK! I wish I’d have just gone with my instinct and greeted him. He’s a man whose service to the Synod I’ve been thankful for for years!
