I always liked Barry's designs as I thought they felt different in a good way when compared to the usual pinball offerings. I recently had 3 in my lineup: BSD, DW, & JB, which were my favorites of his. I recently traded JB away, but of course I miss it. Get well Barry, and thanks for all the years of fun you've given us.
Per Barry’s Facebook page-
“ I just got home from the hospital. I'll be in quarantine for a couple of weeks but everything is looking better.
THANK YOU to all my friends for all posts and we'll wishes.
I am truly humbled by all of the love and support from all of you.
I love you all!”

Quoted from DanQverymuch:Does anyone have an update how Barry's doing?
last i heard he was back at home but was using an oxygen tank..this crazy bastard has been thru some shit in his life and he knows we all wish him the best in hopes he gets well very soon
Quoted from cheshirefilms:Connected with Barry today- I hadn't seen this thread till now- but he's doing a lot better, headed back to work tomorrow!
Excellent news..!!!
Quoted from Lawtalkinguy:Wishing him the best and a speedy recovery. It’s too bad he bought into the COVID-19 denial. Now paying the price. Pleas take this seriously folks.
How do you know he "bought into the COVID-19 denial?" What a dick post.
Quoted from EMsInKC:How do you know he "bought into the COVID-19 denial?”
Via social media. I’d agree with that assessment, but hopefully we’re all willing to cut Barry some slack. I’m sure actually catching it was a come-to-jesus moment.
Quoted from branlon8:At Deeproot?
Yep, he relocated to Texas a few years ago.
