Hi Aunt Joan. Barry surfaced in a dream I had last night which prompted me to do a web search and see that he passed away in July. Although I have not seen much of your family in the past several decades, I still recall Barry’s sense of humor and how he would regularly tell jokes to try and get us to laugh as kids. I hope you and your daughters are doing well. I have been in California for 25 years now. Please feel free to reach out. Your nephew Mike Lubofsky.

Dear Joan
I doubt that you know me, but my relationship with Barry goes back to the 50's. Herbie Kaplan just informed me of this sad news just this morning and I wanted to add my condolences.
I imagine that Barry may have told you of "The Del Rays" which was our singing group of which he was a founding member. Those were indeed wonderful times and the memories of those days have been with me throughout the years. Although we had drifted apart so many years ago, I have never forgotten our friendship. I've added a photo of the group and hope I was successful in that regard. Once again, please accept my sympathies at your loss.
