All of Bart's friends and business associates can tell you how special Bart was to us, that won't change your grief. Nothing can. We can only tell you what he meant to us. He was a very caring person. When someone needed cheering up, Bart was there to do it. If he could help, he did. He is missed greatly by all of us who knew him. Our lives have been made richer for having him in them. We want to thank you for sharing Bart with us.

My sincerest condolences to you, Bart's family and friends. May God comfort you in your loss and help you to understand. I have known Bart since he first started working on I-10. A far cry from the life he once led in the finance world, but he attacked the challanges of the life of a blind businessman like he had a plan on how to succeed in the Business Enterprise Program, and succeed he did! He was so organized, so good with technology that I often called him for help on things I could not understand. He always seemed to be in learning mode himself. When a problem woould arise, you could see the wheels turning in his head to find an answer. Whether serving on the sellection panel with Bart, or just carrying on a conversation at the meetings, you could count on him to keep the conversaation lively. He could really be funny, and very thoughtful with others.
Our program has lost one of the best vendors we have ever had. I feel like I have lost a friend.

I met Bart more then ten years ago, around the time when he first lost his vision. We spent several evenings hanging out at a local drinking establishment and worked on computer sofware together. He was remarkably cheerful and wanted to get on with life quite amazing for someone who just went through a major life changing experience. He will be very much missed and I will remember when I raze a glass of single Malt Scotch.

I met Bart a couple of years ago. We clicked immediately. I recall he, Robert and I enjoying a grilled steak together. Bart tryed his best to teach me to enjoy "good scotch." I never did learn to an I guess I never will now. This defies understanding and I can not say how deeply this hurts and how much I will miss him. Bart paid me the ultimate compliment when in an email he said he "was crossing the street of friendship with me." I cherish his note. I love and miss you, Bart and I'm sorry you're not here for me to say it to personally one more time. Part of Bart's beautiful note said "Metaphorically, you will cross any street at the risk of
getting hit because you want the friendship that might be on the other side. Too
often I am more concerned about getting hit by someone I should not have trusted,
and never get the chance to see what the other side of the street has to offer.
Every time we get together, no matter how bad you may be feeling or whatever other
distractions exist, you make clear efforts to cross the street with me, seeing our
friendship on the other side. You are an incredible person, and I am crossing
the street with you. Sorry it is taking so long."

I first met Bart when he was in BEP training with Phil bluschke. I knew right away he was a very bright person with a quick smile and a lot of drive to succeed. I always enjoyed talking with him and his passing is a loss not only to the program but to all who knew him.

I met Bart in Miami in 1996 when I worked for Miami Dade County. We became good friends over a short time. I enjoyed smoking cigars on Miami Beach and talking sports with him. He was knowledgeable on just about every subject and always ready to learn more along the way. Bart was a very good person with a big heart - I have always been proud to call him a friend.
May God rest his soul.

I remember him as a very nice person.
I didn't know him as well as some of my friends did, but whenever I had any contact with him, it was always warm, friendly, and pleasant.
We stopped by his Interstate Rest Area last year and had a wonderful conversation with him.
He showed Jack, my husband how to read the readings on the Coke machines.
I also had a nice chat with him at a party at a friend's house.
It is sad to know he won't be part of our family of vendors any more, we'll miss him.
