Rick, I am so sad to lose Barry. I know his death was peaceful because you were there. You made his last two months (his whole life) so sweet and happy. I will be in Tampa Sunday so I cannot attend the memorial. I would have told the redecorating story. I will always think of him or our mutual birthday.
Love to you, Betsy
Rick,
We just want you to know that the Memorial Service on Sunday was just perfect. Barry would have approved 100% and the attendance was a smattering of the esteem in which Barry was held.
Take care and keep in touch.
George and Jacque
