Dear Barry.
I was very sad when I found out about your illness.
We were often allowed to be with you and spent wonderful and happy days. On that note, I want to say a warm thank you to you and Bonnie.
I am thinking of you and praying that you will have a lot of courage and strength in these difficult days.
Love you!

Hey Barry,

I hope that today was a great day for you and that you got to enjoy the little things!
I was an opponent of yours during my time at Howard from 2018-2021 and I could just never seem to get my scouting right against your squads. You always seemed to have an upper hand in the game plan. I am thankful to have met and competed against a mind like yours! You gave me the inadvertent opportunity to coach at Metro by creating Metro American VBC

I hope you had a good day today Barry. I want to make sure you know how much people care about you and how much we are pulling for you. Each and every day I am sending you my thoughts and wishes for you to have courage and the strength to win the day. I am sending love and energy to Bonnie and your children too. Together your support system will help you through as you have helped so many people navigate challenging moments in life and in competition. I believe in you.

Sending you a big high five, a "Go get 'em" and an even bigger hug.

Steve

I wish I knew what to say. I feel totally useless.
We’re in shock to hear what is happening.
Please know we are praying and we are willing to help in any way you need.
Much love 💕
