I just read that Mary Frances Henderson Walne — mother of Alan Walne (a former Dallas City Councilman and current president of Herb’s Paint and Body) — died at age 79. Mrs. Walne, a staple of the Lake Highlands community, was also the voice of Herb’s Paint and Body commercials, and was married to Herb Walne, the business’ founder. The family is asking that memorials be made to the Salesmanship Club of Dallas, the Dallas Arboretum or the Lake Highlands Women’s League. Read the obituary here.
