After his retirement, they built a home on Ridgewood, local summer colony, where they spent much of their time. Mr. Hervison died seven years ago. Since that time Mrs. Hervison spent her summers on Ridgewood and divided her winters between the homes of her two daughters, Mrs. Richard Fleming of Harrison, N.Y. and Mrs. Frank Morgan of Dubuque.
