Barry and Dode were our next door neighbors in Bluffton SC.(part time) 2003 to 2014. We loved having them come here and missed them everytime they left. After they sold their house we visited them many times in Bryn Mahr on our way to Ct. We loved them like family. Barry never lost the trinkle in his eye. Jim was 2 days older than Barry and we always knew the phone would ring on June 15th and it would be Barry. He never missed. True friend. Our love to Dode and family.
