My family visited Barry (my cousin) and Marge in Maine when I was about 14 years old. Barry had somehow managed to get access to a cottage on the coast for a few days, and we spent the rest of the week at their house. Marge and Barry were such fun and generous hosts. The trip made such an impression on me that when I graduated college, I looked for a job in Maine. My wife and I moved to Maine in 1991 and raised a family of our here. I will always be thankful to Barry and Marge for that very special week!
I FIRST MET BARRY 1973, I WAS ON CPO CLUB ADVISORY BOARD, SUBIC BAY, NAVSTA. BARRY WOULD ATTEND BRD MEETINGS AND HE, HIS MOTU UNIT KEPT THE SOUND SYSTEM AT IT'S PEAK.
