Hi, Barry,
I know Dave has been telling you about this bio from the Monte Vista Basketball program.
You’ll be happy to note that Tyler was the only player that did not credit his parent(s) as his most influential person. That honor went to you. Want to pay for his college? ;)!
Bye for now,
Jennie
Barry is kind and selfless to the point where he devotes a huge amount of
time, thought and effort to helping me improve my mental fortitude and confidence,
while his only reward can be my gratitude and seeing my improvement.
For this reason I look at our relationship firstly with tremendous appreciation and feel ridiculously lucky to know him..

“I had the honor and privilege to work with Barry to create the first JCC Maccabi Delegation at the Contra Costa Jewish Community Center in August 2008. Barry, better known as ‘Coach Barry’, is one of the most inspirational, compassionate, intelligent, and dedicated individuals I have ever met. Barry holds himself to the highest level of personal morals and character and inspires others to do the same. He truly made a difference in the lives of the basketball team he coached and gained the much deserved respect of parents, professionals, and other players and coaches. It would be an honor to not only work with Barry again, but continue to learn from his strong and compassionate leadership style.” December 20, 2008
