I am so sorry to hear about the passing of Barry. My mind goes back to our childhood days of us all playing, fighting, laughing,and crying together. Even though we did not see each other much in our later years, when we would see each other we would stop and try to play catch up with each other. Family you all are in my prayers. May our God give you comfort in this your hour of sadness. God Bless.

My Brother, My Friend,
This is really hard to believe. I watched you make a magnificent change and fight to hold it together. I am thankful to have been able to sit with you and talk about how precious life is and how much we took for granted. I pray that God is pleased with you. Rest In Paradise My Friend.
