Read MoreGaynor, I am sorry I did not get to see Barry before he left us. I graduated in 1968 and I lost touch with most of the guys. Barry was so much fun and a really unique individual. from the comments it sounds like you had a wonderful life together. We all loved Barry and he was a great example of living life in a wonderful way. I wish I can do as well. Travel safe.

Gaynor:
I too did not know you but was a fraternity brother of Barry's. It has been well over 40 years since Barry and I had crossed paths, but I remember Barry for his "presence". and "individuality".
He is in a much better place no longer suffering.
We will long remember "The Rocket Man"

Gaynor:
I did not know you but I did know Barry. My brother told my you guys had quite an eclectic life way back when. When I graduated from Adelphi in '67 I was drafted into the Army and was gone and out of touch with everyone for a couple of years.
I wish I could have seen Barry again after 40 years. It is a fitting tribute that he is "The Rocket Man".
