Barry, you were my slightly older brother and longest friend. Thank you for the adventures. I remember you teaching me how to haggle, how to do the unexpected and to be myself. Enjoy your physics arguments with Unka Lou. He loved physics, his students, his life partner, the Navy and his furbabies. I will miss you.

Mr Eisen was an amazing teacher! He is one of the main reasons I chose my major as an engineer. His encouragement and passion for teaching was unparalleled. Really sad to hear about his passing. Thank you for everything Mr Eisen.
