The world has lost an incredible man. He was a man for all seasons. His gentlemanly ways and terrific sense of humor were par to none. Both Dick (Haley) and I enjoyed crusing with him - rest peaceful sailor and know how much you were loved and will be missed. Nancy Haley (North Weymouth, MA)

Dear Barcelo Family,
I had the honor of serving under then Capt. Barcelo and found him to be a wonderful man and a great soldier. My prayers will be for him today.
