My sympathy to the Barsha family. Years ago we participated against each other while playing high school basketball. Saint Paul versus Jefferson Township. We were also inducted into the Army together and spent eight weeks basic training at Fort Leonard Wood in Missouri. Our wives lived off post together. Again my sympathy.
