Rest in Peace: Herb Peterson

The founder of the Egg McMuffin, Santa Barbaran Herb Peterson, passed away Tuesday. Herb was 89 years old and owned several McDonald's franchises with his son David. CNN did a good story about him on Wednesday that I had meant to post yesterday.

I've sat with Herb a few times over the years at his Upper State Street store and discussed current events over a cup of coffee...he was a good man who gave a lot to our community and will be missed by many.
