Barry and I met at church, around 1968. We were classmates in High School. Beyond all of that he was one of my best friends. I was always amazed at how Barry would start doing something and be good at it right away. We played many rounds of golf together, never came close to beating him. I have great memories of many ping-pong and pool games in the Krueger's basement. Yea, he was really good at both of those also. It does not surprise me to hear all the accolades from his co-workers. Barry was one of the smartest people I've known. And he was such a really great person who never changed who he was from the day I met him. He was really great at something else also. Life! I know it's cliche, but Mary and I's thoughts and prayers really do go out to his family. Especially thinking of his mother, Carol.
