I met Barry when I first got my Task Force truck in 1998. I needed a part he had so I drove to his house to pick it up. For me it was like meeting a super star, yet he was very gracious. He showed around his house and shop like I was an old friend. I especially enjoyed the old truck in his garden. Later he personally helped me on my truck during one particular sticking point with it. For me he set the benchmark for courteous, kind, and pleasant behavior in the hobby. Thanks Barry, your actions, words and accomplishments, they still provide inspiration for others.
