Herbert Stewart Price, also affectionately known as Herb, was born on January 23, 1928 in Earlham, Iowa to C. Roy and Pearl Price. He departed on his final journey on July 7, 2024. Herbert was a unique blend of dedication, creativity, love, and reliability. For 59 years, Carlisle, Iowa was fortunate to have him as a steadfast resident, where he was a familiar and beloved figure.

Herb was a man of many passions. He worked as a meat cutter in the retail grocery business for an impressive 47 years, applying his creative flair and steadfast dedication to every cut of meat he prepared. He was a loving husband to his wife, Phyllis Price, whom he married on December 29, 1950, and a dedicated father to his son, Craig (Kayla) Price.

Herb's hobbies were as varied as they were numerous. He loved hunting and fishing in his boat. He also spent countless hours working in the rock shop in Apache Junction, Arizona, and never missed an opportunity to attend his son's athletic events. He was an ardent fan of the St. Louis Cardinals, the Iowa Hawkeyes, and the Wartburg Knights. He loved photography and his annual tradition of preparing homemade breakfast sausage every Christmas morning was a family favorite.

Herb leaves behind a host of loved ones to cherish his memory. He is survived by his wife, Phyllis Price, his son Craig (Kayla) Price, granddaughter Tara (Chris) Winter, grandson Tyson (Audrey) Price, great-granddaughter Emmry Winter, great-grandson Maddox Winter, great-granddaughter Zoe Price, and great-grandson Bodhi Price. Herb will be deeply missed by numerous nieces, nephews, and all who were fortunate enough to know him. He was preceded in death by his parents, C. Roy and Pearl (Wynkoop) Price; siblings, Cleo Price, Morris Price, William Price, Robert Price, Eileen Ramsey, and Mildred Robertson.

Herb touched many lives with his love, creativity, and dedication, leaving us with countless memories to cherish. His presence will be dearly missed.
