Francis B. Bilson

My heartfelt sympathy on the untimely death of Barry Bilson. He was my boss, friend and my therapist. I miss him badly.

Barry was a great friend and mentor. Very smart and a great sense of humor. I learned so much from him. Thoughts and prayers for his family and friends.

Barry was one of the rocks of Legg Mason. No chalk, hard working, extremely friendly, and perhaps the funniest person in the firm. His limericks at Fetting's St. Paddy's day luncheon were classic. Just a great human being. Huge dedication to the Boy Scouts and a very good sailor. Condolences to his family.

I met Barry in 1976 when I joined Troop 133. He was my scoutmaster from 1977-1979 and he mentored me as a young leader, especially in training and leading others. When I turned 21, he administered the scoutmaster oath to me. His impact on me personally and professionally was profound, sometimes like a second dad, other times like an
older brother. I will miss his humor. His stewardship of scouting, especially at Broad Creek, will benefit generations of scouts. Rest in peace, Mr. B!

Barry was one of o kind! So smart, kind and funny. Condolences to his friends family.

Working with Barry was a special privilege. He was very smart, had a unique sense of humor, and was devoted to Legg Larson.

Barry was truly one of a kind. He was a very respected leader at Legg Mason and I learned a lot from him. He had a great sense of humor and a one of a kind style. My condolences to his family and friends.

Barry was a very special leader at Legg Mason and was widely respected for his financial acumen across all facets of the firm as it diversified. His wit was truly applied in equal opportunity mode, no one spared including CEO´s.
I am very sad to hear of his passing and send love to all his family and friends.

Barry was a lifelong member of Scouting and a Life Scout from Troop 133 in Govans, MD. He served with distinction as a member of the Baltimore Area Council Executive Board for many years, including chair of the Council Investment Committee and Co-chair for the Council Capital Campaign. His contributions of time, talent and resources to the Scouting program will benefit the Scouts from the Baltimore Area Council for generations to come.

Sincere Condolences to Family & Friends. Barry was lifelong friend n brother thank you for your kindness n brotherhood & for always being there. Great contribution of time to St Mary Church School & Tr 133 Always in my heart Love Tim Whelan
