He will be sadly missed. Virginia will never be the same for us
Will never forget last year’s US OPEN. At the end, before we turned back to massachusetts, Barry told us that he loved us. We are very grateful for the years we have had. Our hearts are broken that we are so far away. He will be sadly broken
He loved the game of pool and the industry but more so…he loved people.
SO SORRY FOR YOUR LOSS. I HOPE FRIENDS & FAMILY CAN FIND SOME COMFORT FROM ALL OF THE THOUGHTS & PRAYERS. BARRY WILL BE MISSED BY MANY IN THE POOL COMMUNITY.
Although I didn’t know Barry as an adult, I did know him as a teenager. My memories of time spent with Barry go way back to 1960. I remember visiting Barry at Frederick Military Academy, dancing the “Twist” to Chubby Checker, going to Ocean View Beach along with his lovely parents, and, sister, Sharon. Barry was fun to be around, always smiling, laughing, and joking. I will never forget those big beautiful, sparkling, blue eyes that could make your heart stop. Thank you, Barry, for crossing my path and touching my heart years ago. Heartfelt condolences to the Behrman family.
To the entire family of Barry Behrman. Please accept my deepest sympathy in the loss of your dad, brother, uncle and friend. I know that time will heal this and we are all here for you.
Berry, We had fun in our early years, May your memory be eternal.
