Barry Unowitz Obituary

Passed away suddenly on Thursday December 23, 2010 at the age of 61. He is a beloved father of four, Ashley, Jerrod, Gabrielle, and Nicholas. Loving brother of Barbara Holtemann and Marc Unowitz. Uncle to Debbie, Randy, Steven, and Kyle. Son of the late Meyer Unowitz and Laura Kaye. Barry was a hard worker, and an adventurous spirit. He loved boating, and being with his children more than anything in the world. Barry was a dedicated finance and general manager in the automobile business for more than 30 years and many would say he was the best there ever was. The business will never be the same without him. Barry will be greatly missed by family, friends, and colleagues alike. Memorial services will be held on Thursday December 30, 2010, 2:30 p.m. at Green Valley Mortuary, 610 Coloma Street in Folsom. Virtual guestbook and directions to facility may be found at www.greenvalleymortuary.com.

Rest in peace cousin Barry.
Even though we had no contact for the past 40 years or so, I have thought of you and your brother Marc and sister Barbara.
I didn't know you had a family and I want to extend my condolences to them, particularly your children.
I'll see you on the other side.
