Herbert William Hendershot, 93, of Nampa, died November 16, 2012, at home of natural causes. He was born February 7, 1919, in Smithfield, Utah, to Mary Edith Read, and William Herbert Hendershot. Herb moved his family from Utah to the Lakeview area south of Lake Lowell in 1953 where he farmed and raised cattle. His favorite past time was fishing with his buddies, Parry & Cliff. He loved the area and the neighbors, and was grateful to stay in the home he built until he passed away. He is preceded in death by his wife Elsie, his second wife Venice (Bowen), sisters, Dorothy, Verda and Lois, and son-in-law Tom Dufur. Herb is survived by his children: Kathleen (Mike) Lewis, Salt Lake; Betty (Sid) Dufur-Buck, Nampa; Ray (Carolyn), Hawaii; Peggy (Mike) Floyd, Nampa; and Ed (Carol), Star; a half-brother, Norman (Bonnie) Gittens, and a half-sister, Jeanine (Marcell) Tibbitts. His family will greet friends Monday evening, at Flahiff Funeral Chapel, 624 Cleveland Blvd, Caldwell, Idaho, from 6:00 pm to 8:00 pm. Funeral services will be held Tuesday, November 20, at 11:00 am, with a viewing from 10:00 am to 10:40 am at The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints chapel in Marsing, Idaho.

I was sorry to hear about the death of your dad. I remember both your mother and father in the Marsing Ward. I remember when your dad came over and was helping my father-in-law in building his home when he lived in Nampa. My thoughts and prayers are with you in this time of letting go. Jean G. Hennis
