Barry Blum was my Uncle by marriage to my Aunt Irene and I have known him my entire life. He was quiet and reserved when we would visit as a child and as a result I did not know him very well during those times. During the last nine years, however, since my mother passed away I got a chance to know him during visits to my Aunt's and his home.  Barry was hilarious with a "realistic about life" sense of humor. I always enjoyed talking with him. He offered lots and lots of advice about Life, saving money, family, etc. He was proud of his accomplishments and loved to share with anyone around him stories about his life's experiences. He was especially fond of sharing his collection of photography with anyone who would take the time to look at his pictures and as he painted too, his collection of paintings on canvas were always a treat to sit through and view time and time again .  I am honored to have known him. He will surely be missed!
