Barry grew up in Lakeview, NY and received his education in the Malverne School District graduating in 1976. He loved to play basketball and cards.
Barry was a man full of so much joy, love and laughter to offer to those around him. He was the father of two amazing men, Marcus and Devon Fisher who he loved deeply. Barry was a man who always had to keep moving and enjoyed being out and about at all times. He was like that song "Papa was a rolling stone, wherever he laid his hat was his home". He was a man full of positivity and full of jokes that would have anyone burst into laughter. Barry was a most loving and generous man to all, especially his family and friends. He left a mark on all who knew him that will last a lifetime. He will be forever missed.
