Barry was cool because Barry was cool. Didn't try, just was. Whimsical smile. Sitting in front of the laptop- remembering his easy smile and voice. Sad to see so many classmates have passed. Yet, reflecting upon memories of their presence, gives them honor. Sometimes it's good to be sad, cared for and thought of- to be missed. Live to be missed. Always thought some of the best athletes in Jr. High and HS were the ones who didn't necessarily play organized sports. Rather, were the skateboarders, and bike riders. Barry was cool! Something to be said for the gang from Peralta.
