Obituary: HERBERT SAMUEL REFF
30, 1938 \ 14, 2012

Herbert Samuel Reff was born to Maurice and Anna Reff on 30, 1938. He had four siblings, Judy, Arlene, Irene and David. He grew up in Astoria, Queens and although he spent most of his life in Washington, DC, Herb never stopped being a New Yorker. In his youth, Herb was actively involved in the Boy Scouts of America \ he never stopped being a boy scout either.

Herb received a Bachelor of Science in Physics from City of New York and went on to do graduate work in physics and math at Syracuse University and the Foundation for Advanced Education in the Sciences at the National Institutes of . In 1967, Herb presented his paper on a mathematical model for whiplash and head impact, co-authored by Associate Neurosurgeon of the NIH Institute of Neurological Disease and Blindness, Dr. Ayub K. Ommaya, at the 7th International Conference on Medical and Biological Engineering in Stockholm, Sweden. He received a Master of Science degree in Technology of Management from American University, in 1979.

Prior to moving to Washington, D.C., Herb worked at a U.S. Air Force base in Rome, New York. He later joined the U.S. Social Security Department in Washington, D.C. as a Computer Systems Analyst in the Division of Economic Research. In 1975, Herb assisted with the Interagency Task Force for Indochina Refugees in conjunction with the State Department. He also assisted with the resettlement effort for Ukrainian refugees in the U.S. In his neighborhood, Herb was a community activist, serving as President of the Reno Road Coalition and actively participating in local politics. He also engaged in volunteer activities, such as cooking meals for the homeless at Christ House.

In addition to his work at the Social Security Administration, Herb worked as an adjunct computer professor at the University of the District of Columbia. When he retired from the federal government, Herb became a substitute teacher in the D.C. Public Schools.

Herb was a certified scuba diver, a fisherman, a fix-it man, and a gentleman. He enjoyed traveling, music, Malbec, skiing, swimming, talking politics, and of course, a good cup of coffee. Herb and his dog Simón were staples of Friendship Heights and Chevy Chase.

Most everyone who knew Herb, knew a lot about his wife of 39 years, María del Rosario Maldonado Reff, his three children, Jonathan, Rosanna, and María Rachel, his sons-in-law, Gregg DeMammos and Damien Coor, and his five grandchildren, Demetrius, Marcus, María Cecilia, Xavier, and Santiago.

Known as Herb, to his friends, Herbie to his extended family, and Dude to his grandkids, Herb was a blessing to all of those he touched through his stories, his laughter, his smile, his generosity, and his spirit. He was a dedicated husband and a phenomenal father. He was a wonderful grandfather, brother, son, in-law, uncle and friend. Words cannot characterize the joy of his presence or describe the loss of his passing. He will be sorely missed, but his spirit will be kept alive through his family and friends.

Tú me acostumbraste
- Frank Dominguez

Tú me acostumbraste
A todas esas cosas
Y tú me enseñaste
Que son maravillosas
Sutil, llegaste a mi
Como la tentación
Llenando de inquietud
Mi corazón

Yo no concebía
Como se quería
En tu mundo raro
Y por ti aprendí
Por eso me pregunto
Al ver que me olvidaste
Por que no me enseñaste
Como se vive sin ti


Do not stand at my grave and weep,
I am not there; I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow,
I am the diamond glints on snow,
I am the sun on ripened grain,
I am the gentle autumn rain.
When you awaken in the mornings hush
I am the swift uplifting rush
Of quiet birds in circling flight.
I am the soft star-shine at night.
Do not stand at my grave and cry,
I am not there; I did not die.

- Mary Elizabeth Frye
