Barry aka "Bogey" We had so many great times together, the memories are endless. I know you are more comfortable now and I am glad for that. I'm sure your mom and Marcel have you now and are working on getting you in ship shape condition. I love you my brother and miss you dearly knowing you are no longer with us.
