Herbert William Mies was born June 29, 1947 in Litchfield, to Stephan and Elenor (Arens) Mies. He graduated from Litchfield High School in 1965 and then joined the Minnesota National Guard for 13 years. On May 10, 1969, he married Clara Fank at St. Mary’s Catholic Church in Bird Island.

He was a member of St. Paul’s Catholic Church in Sauk Centre, Catholic United Financial, and an honorary member of the Knights of Columbus. Herb was a caring, loving husband and a wonderful father and grandfather. He loved spending time with his family, fishing, hunting with his sons-in-law, casino trips, playing cards with the guys at the Bear Trap, and traveling with the love of his life, Clara. He also enjoyed playing the Wii with the grandchildren and trying new recipes; not all were good.
