Dear Rupert, Sandra, Wanda, Carol & Families
I have been a friend of Barney’s since we were 6 years old. We attended school, Wolf cubs and Boy Scouts together. We played pond/road hockey in the winter and baseball in the summers. Although I have not seen him, or most of you, in 30 years these memories of our childhood are as fresh in my mind today as if they happened yesterday.
I am sorry for your loss. He was a great guy. We will see him again.
