Herbert H. Rubin, a resident of Woodside for 38 years, died peacefully at his home on March 10. He was 84.

As a member of Ladera Oaks Swim & Tennis Club, he became an avid swimmer and exercise buff, say family members.

After retiring, he organized the "the senior geezer breakfast club" that met frequently at the Sun Deck restaurant at 3000 Sand Hill Road.
