Barry and I were roommates in the'70s near apartment complex in Pawtucket right adjacent to the zoo where the elephant was housed so we got to wake up in the morning to elephant snorts at times. As a roommate and friend you couldn't want anyone better. We lost contact over the years but I would like to send Nancy a copy of my book so if I could get her address sent to me that would be appreciated. I was also on the same bowling league and bowling team with him and his father and I was always thrilled to be invited to that Passover. God bless you Barry and I'll see you when I get there
