I see his faith legacy at work weekly through his son, Mac, who serves in the Kids Ministry at CrossCreek. Mac and Jana are such big blessings to everyone who knows them. Heb modeled a life of faith in Jesus well. I am praying for peace and comfort for the entire family. Much love from CrossCreek Church, Colleyville.

My father-in-law, Herb Irwin, was certainly one of the most godly, kind, generous, and compassionate men I have ever known. He was always like a 2nd father to me, particularly after my own father passed away in 2008. He immediately accepted me lovingly into the Irwin family when Mac and I began dating in 1987, and he loved me and our family well. Herb definitely modeled integrity, honor, respect, and kindness to his 2 sons and his 5 grandchildren. He showed and modeled sincere love for his wife, 2 sons, 2 daughters-in-law, 5 grandchildren & their spouses, and 4 great-grandchildren in everything that he did and said. He was intentional in having a relationship with our children and grandchildren, and he loved being with us and involved in our lives. Our family and extended family always enjoyed family time that involved Pepa ... playing Joker and other games, reminiscing about past times, hearing his stories and "sayings", and hearing lots of stories about his own family. Herb "Pepa" has left an incredible legacy for his family and friends. We are all much better for having known and loved him. We are so grateful that he is now no longer suffering and enjoying eternity with his Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. We will join him there one day! I love you, Pepa! Thank you for being such a wonderful role model for Mac and our children and grandchildren! We already miss you tons and we thank you for all that you taught us and shared with us. All my love, jana

Wishing you comfort and peace during this difficult time.

I remember the night that Herb was ordained a deacon, and as he tried to tell his personal story, he began to be so emotional that he couldn't go on. So Cam Fannin stepped up on the stage, put his arm around him, and said, "Now you know what kind of man will be your deacon, one who feels deeply about his Lord and Savior." What a picture for me of Herb.
