It is with great sadness and joy that the family Herbert Zinck, 94, of Centre, announces his passing on Sunday, May 17, 2020 at Harbour View Haven Home for Special Care, Lunenburg.
Born in Crouse’s Settlement, Herbie was a son of the late Earling and Mae (Weagle) Zinck.

He was a faithful member of First South United Church where he sang in the church choir, as well as an honorary Elder and supported the work of the church in any way he could.
Herbie’s many activities brought him life long friends that he cherished. He was always willing to lend a helping hand.
