Barry- If I knew how to make people laugh like you do I'd say something funny to give you strength. But that aint me! So, I'll just say that you are in my prayers. Rest up. You got this!

Barry and Family,

Within the next few days, I will give Joe Silipo a call regarding your current health status. The OLD coaches (Joe and I) will be praying for you.

Your Brenner family is continuing to keep you in our thoughts and prayers. We love you!

Barry,
Highlight of my 10 days in Orlando was seeing you out and about. All my best as you fight this battle...

Dearest Barry,
I just wanted you to know that I'm praying for you daily. I went to look up some encouraging quotes and then I figured...nah, he's a coach, he knows them all. :) But this I know, the Lord has you in His mighty hands Barry. I pray that you can be relieved of the pain you are experiencing in Chemo and get back to feeling better and healing. Bless you brother, Christy

Thinking of you and sending so much thoughts, prayers and love!!! ❤️

Hi Barry! Sorry I missed seeing you at JO's! I had no idea you were there! Thinking of you today as you visit the hospital. I am so sad that you are having to go through this. I am praying for the relief of pain and the ability to eat and drink again. You are an inspiration to me and I pray daily for healing and comfort for you. Good luck!

Dear Barry and Bonnie,
we are keeping you both in our thoughts and prayers.
So glad to hear that Barry was able to travel in June and watch some volleyball!
Wishing you all the best.

It was so wonderful to meet you and family and watch games with you in Orlando. Thanks for sharing all your volleyball knowledge with us! Appreciate all that your family has done for ours and hope that we can return the favor someday soon. Hang in there and hope to see you again in the near future!

My thoughts and prayers are coming your way Barry ! Stay strong and I can't believe I did not see you at nationals. love ya Jen and the Harvard volleyball family

Barry ,
When I heard you were out recruiting I was happy , impressed , amazed , and glad you could see other coaches in person .
I faded out of in person recruiting , just not as fired up about it .
Carlston told me you told him the REO drumstick story . Nice . You can know there are still some 80’s songs I hear that I immediately think of you .
I do think of you often . If sometime you are free to call we could talk for a few minutes . I texted some with Bonnie every now and then .
I will continue to think of you and continue to hope things go well for you . Seems like you are showing perseverance , courage and so many other strong qualities . I know you are hanging tough .
One other fun memory : walleyball .

I lean on. trust in. and am confident in the Lord with all my heart and mind and do not rely on my own insight or understanding. In all my ways, I know, recognize, and acknowledge Him, and He directs and makes straight and plain my paths.
Proverbs 3:5-6
