Shane HERBERT Obituary

Our condolences to Shane's family. When we moved to New Plymouth it was a joy to find that Shane was a local lawyer. I hadn't seen him since Otago Boys High. As clients of many years we are going to miss those friendly visits to the office. RIP.

Rest in peace Shane
Loved working with you on our forestry block
The hair raising trip in your sporty Japanese car from Stratford to Te Wera will stay with me forever

Shane, you were a great friend, I will miss you.

Sorry to hear that we´ve lost you.
Until we meet again.
Condolences to your loved ones.

My condolences to Shane's family. I will cherish the memories I have from when I worked for Shane. Poking my head around the office door or staff room, "morning Shane", both smiling at each other. I will miss you. Rest in peace Shane.

Shane - thank you for all your support and assistance to the Taranaki Jazz Club. We are going to miss you immensely.
"Music gives a soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination, and life to everything." Rest easy.

Rest in peace Shane .
You played "the game of life " so well.

Shane was a friend and legal adviser to me for over forty years, he was a trusted sounding board for my ideas and enthusiastic supporter of my career. I will miss that access to an intellectual conversation and alternative world view. A loyal friend lost to soon.

Very sad to hear Shane has passed. Glad to have had a catchup up with Shane a few weeks back to have the chance to thank him for being a special friend/boss many years back. Too much to write, but condolences to his family. He will be sadly missed on the slopes, his daily bike rides, and so much more.

Heart felt condolences to all family and friends we will miss you very much in the band Julie

Shane was a very able lawyer and certainly one you would want to have on your side of the trenches. I was lucky to have worked both with him and against him. Condonlences to Shane's family.

My condolences to Shane´s family. I have worked with Shane in numerous aspects of law, Shane helped a lot of people, nothing he couldn´t sort.

Sending our condolences to Shane's extended family. Shanes law firm was located upstairs in our building for many many years. I will always remember on a Friday night after closing listening to him play his grand piano. I admired his skills and everytime I hear a piano now it will remind me of him.

Rest in peace Shane.

From us all at the New Plymouth NZ Automobile Association.

Shane, you were not the result of "cookie cutter" law school, you preferred to look at things through your own unique lens. That meant that it was always a pleasure to deal with you. Even on those occasional times when we didn´t necessarily agree, you always took the time to explain your reasons and all the while there was never an egg timer running. You will be sorely missed by all those who relied on the mix of your expertise and great humour. Roland Lina.
