Dear Phyllis, Marc and Jennifer,
I am so sorry to hear about Barry. Although we lost touch after I moved to Philadelphia, I talked about him often and remembered all those great surveying hikes. Barry gave me a chance when I was down and out and taught me the essentials of running a business. I thought of him as a second father and I will miss him greatly. I am so sorry for your loss, you will all be in my prayers.
