I had the pleasure of having Barry as my academic advisor in school. He was so kind and patient with me. He always talked about how much he loved his wife, children and grandchildren. He had a one of a kind personality. I will never forget him.

Kathy and family, i am so sorry to hear about Barry. He was my academic advisor at tcc. Our last meeting was last month and he was such a good man, a great listener and his office was very welcoming with all the unique rocks and scents! He will be missed!! Praying peace over you all!

I worked with Barry at TCC for the past 5.5 years. Barry's students were incredibly important to him. And he was a true empathetic, which serves the role of Academic Advisor well. He shared many heartfelt stories with me about his students through the years. But the most important thing to Barry was his family. He adored them, and it was evident in every conversation he had about them. He is already missed tremendously. His impact has been felt, and his passion for students is a legacy that...

I loved talking about the Mandalorian and John Wick. I'll carry his compassion, wit, and wisdom with me for all of my days. Thank you, Barry.

Prayers up for the family. A kinder sweeter man I have not met. I worked w Barry at TCC. He will be missed. I know he's in a better place and you will see him again.

I shared many laughs and frustrations with Barry. He was a wonderful guy.

Barry was a one-of-a-kind. His smile contagiously affected everyone around TCC West Campus. He cared for EVERYONE! He passed around beautiful stones for us to use as worry stones, and his office was like a Zen room. He touched everyone so beautifully, so much so that when I went on vacation, I brought him a nice rock that I specifically chose for him out of Loch Ness. He is already missed.

Kathy and family, I am so very sorry for your loss. Barry was my academic advisor at TCC for the last three years, and I always looked forward to our meetings. He consistently had a warm smile and took time to talk about life, even when he was running behind schedule. When I received the news from TCC that he had passed, I was deeply saddened. Barry´s kindness and light touched so many, and he will be greatly missed.
