I grew up behind the Lathams, on East Avenue. My brother and I played basketball in Barry's yard with him, Bob, and occasionally Bill. I also played on the same Little League team with him - I was a catcher and he was an excellent pitcher! So very sorry for your loss. Barry, may God be with you on your journey.

My most sincere condolences to Gail and the entire Latham family. Barry and I met 53 years ago as freshman at Kolbe High School. Summers were spent following local softball teams, car cruising, and enjoying an occasional party at the Latham home on Willow Street. Barry made life a lot of fun for many. RIP my friend.
