It is with sadness that we announce the death of Mr. Herbert E. Strawbridge, former President of Higbees Department Store and most recently head of the John P. Murphy Foundation. It was thanks to Mr. Strawbridge that the Murphy Foundation granted the funds to process this Cleveland Union Terminal Collection and create the CUT web site. Mr. Strawbridge died October 16th and we extend our condolences to his family and friends.
