He graduated from Reagan High School in Houston, TX and followed his education up by joining the United States Navy. During his service to our country he married the love of his life Mary Kathrin Burger on November 17, 1945. After his military service Herbert returned home to work at the family business Remmert Automotive. Eventually becoming the owner, Herbert and Mary Kathrin were a staple of the Houston Heights community until their sons took over. Even after retirement Herbert would make weekly trips to the shop to be around the business and help his sons with the bookkeeping.
Herbert loved hosting his grandchildren for overnight stays and all of his family and friends for holiday or special evening gatherings at his home. He loved to fish and shared that passion with his family members throughout the years. Herbert loved his church and his faith and served others alongside his dedicated band of brothers in the HOGS organization at Resurrection Church.

He is survived by sons Jim Remmert and wife Karla, Jeff Remmert and wife Bette. Grandchildren Natalie Hegwood, Alicia Haynes, Angela Hogue, Bryce Remmert, Britney Remmert, Meghan Roach and 10 great grandchildren.
