My grandnephew, Dylan Herr is a very busy guy. He is Chief Operating Officer (COO) at Herr Group. Dylan manages nine Red Wing Shoe stores. Dylan is a very social kind of guy, which makes his perfect for the position he is in. He knows how to make people comfortable in any setting. He has been in the show business all his life. It is a family run business, and he has grown into it, learning from the best. He knows the business inside out, upside down, and backward. He goes non-stop, if it’s not at work, it’s in his own activities, or his family, which is truly his top priority.
Dylan loves to play golf, and is teaching his son, Max to play too. Max may be young, but he will likely make an excellent
golfer in the future. Dylan and his team placed 2nd in the recent Rotary Club Golf Tournament. It’s a five-man team and from what I have gathered, the competition was fierce. Dylan also plays softball and basketball. I’m not surprised. Dylan and his wife, my grandniece, Katy Herr are two of the most athletic people I have ever met. They recently ran a Glow Run 5K race together, and Dylan supports Katy in her marathon runs. Running a race is one thing, but having people behind you all the way, cheering you on, sure makes it a whole lot better. In addition to teaching Max how to golf, Dylan is the coach of Max’s T-Ball team, and he really loves helping these kids learn how to play, and sportsmanship too. Max and Dylan are “best buds” and love to wrestle and play sports together.
In addition to all the sports “running” here and there from team to team and event to event, Dylan finds time
to do all the normal yardwork and house chores. He has become the most amazing handyman ever, which is awesome. When Dylan and Katy bought a house a few years ago, Dylan jumped right into all the normal homeowner things, without complaining. He wants their home to be comfortable for his family, and for when his family and any other guests comes to visit. Dylan also is a very community-oriented guy. He gets involved in fund raisers and other community activities around town. Everything Dylan is involved in make him a very fast-paced guy. I think most of us would have trouble keeping up. I know his pace makes me think I need a nap, and I’m no wimp either. I just don’t go at the pace of the Herr family for sure. Today is Dylan’s birthday. Happy birthday Dylan!! Have a great day!! We love you!!
