Not sure what to say?

To my sweetest Dad,
I want to say thank you and that I loved you for so many things and I hope that you knew how I felt. I could not possibly mention them all here but they will be with me for the rest of my life. I want to thank for your staunch democratic values, for being there for me, for teaching me compassion like picking up people walking on the side of the road in the pouring rain, for being so funny and telling us all of the old jokes (“you call that cake, now that’s a piece of...

Thanks for all the good times and especially for fathering our wonderful two daughters. I know you were as proud of them as I and they loved you so very much. Sorry you had to leave them and your beautiful granddaughter Sarah so soon. Here's to our next life!!!

I did not spend enough time with you, but when we did it reinforced that you were a kind and gentle and humorous man. My deepest sympathies to his family.

Dear Barry, how does someone say goodby to their best friend.
Both Renee and I will hold you close to our hearts forever..

Barry and I were friends as teenagers in Brooklyn, although after his move to Sunbury our meetings were much more sporadic. As I think of him -- some fifty-five years later -- I remember a gentle, generous and sweet human always armed with a ready smile. I now reflect that for a teenager, those were rather unique characteristics.

I am saddened by his passing and wish to extend my heartfelt condolences to his entire family.

My deepest condolences to the entire family. Barry was a childhood friend of mine and we shared many good and fun times together. From Winthrop Jr. High to High school to Mt. Kisko weekends with the girls we were always laughing and sharing good times.He will always be remembered by all that knew him. May he rest in peace. Donald Levenson
