It was a privilege to work with Barry. He taught me a lot about people and the process we learned a lot.

He always was prepared to make the hard decision because he knew it needed to be made to better the county.

One thing I’ll miss is his sense of humor, however warped it may be.

I think one of Barry’s strengths was his ability to make sure we had input from everyone. It was one of the secrets of the success of Tri-County.
