Michael Barr

I may have said this earlier: Michael (known as Mick) came to the Naval Academy as a football recruit. He was soft spoken and a true gentleman and yet a natural leader: a perfect candidate for USNA. Plebe (freshman) year was tough, stressful and tempers flared but Mick handled in a calm stride. The succeeding years there were the same for Mick; not many could say the same.

First Class (senior) year was a bit less stressful as we concentrated on graduating. One of the subdivisions...

Ohio Barr Family, especially Connie and Tom,I think of you both daily.

I didn't know Mick very well, but was aware of his prowess on the football field. As a Naval Academy classmate I was saddened to learn of his passing and will remember him and his family in my prayers.

Our hearts go out to Connie and his family.

Mick was a “big brother” to many of his US Naval Academy classmates. He was the one “brother” that we always looked up to – a quiet unassuming man who eventually married his high school sweetheart. He was blessed with athletic gifts, intelligence and a charismatic leadership quality that caused us to gather around him and lean on him. We will miss him. We are all better men for having known him.

Mick was a great person and manager at P&G. My sincerest sympathy to the family.

Dear Tom,

May comfort and peace be with you during this time of the passing of your dear brother and our cousin, Mick.

May your hearts soon be filled with wonderful memories of joyful times together as you celebrate a life well-lived.
