Philip G. Herman (Phil), 65, of Greer SC left this life on March 13, 2020 and gained release from his earthly pain.
Phil was the son of the late William H. Herman (Bill) and Betty C. Herman. Phil leaves behind to cherish his memory his wife Cindi Herman (Newman), daughter Kathy Neal and granddaughters Kaitlyn and Grace as well as his sister, Patti Clark (Ray), brother Eric (Cindy), nephew Adam Dye and nieces Kayla Herman and Casey Sandlin. Many other family members and friends will miss his quiet and unpretentious ways. Phil spent most of his working days in the textile world in plant maintenance roles. He was the unseen presence that kept the machinery operational so others could do their more obvious jobs.
Phil was a simple man in many ways and complex in other ones. He lived life on his terms and departed it in the same way. A little bit of a rebel that never swam with the current from day one to days done. We should all take a lesson from Phil. Live life your way and to the detriment of no one.
A celebration of life will be held at a later date. The family requests that you consider donating to the American Cancer Society or the American Heart Association or a charity of your choice in his memory. Or just celebrate life!
