Carla and Raymond (Barry),
Barry and I want you to know that our thoughts and prayers are with you at this very difficult time. Your dad was a fine man, and I feel blessed to have known him. Barry will forever count him as one his best friends and favorite people. I am so glad we got to see him at Jennifer's wedding last year. I didn't have the chance to get to know him well myself, but hearing all the stories and memories Barry has shared over the years, I feel like I've know him all my life. He had such a magnificent smile and way about him. It was infectious. I know the days, weeks and months ahead will take some adjustments, but he will always be with you in your heart. He loved you both so very much. I didn't have to spend more than an hour with him to know that. Barry regrets not being able to attend his service, but there was just no way. He was then, and is now, with you in spirit. May God bless you now and always.
