Barry,
It has been a pleasure and honor knowing you all these years. You were outstanding man and role model.
There is a poem out there that states, Its not the year you are born, its not the year you died, but the dash in between.
Your dash has been one to be proud of. With having made your lifes final journey on this earth, to that house not built with hands, but ever eternal in the heavens. RIP my friend.

Berry,
I know our paths crossed at Enroute but it has been so many years passed. I was, so, looking forward to visiting with you upon your return from Dallas and reunite a friendship past. But, you are in such a much better place, now, and in a big way I envy you, Your pain is over now and you have no more worry, either. God keep you in his loving arms forever and forever it will last!
John Baird

MANY THANKS TO BARRY WILDER. My arrival to Enroute in the mid 70's gave me the privilege to know BARRY thru the years as a true C-5/C-141 CREW CHIEF who was highly respected in ENROUTE. Later I enjoyed his company upon many of the reunions he attended and it was fun to talk of the ENROUTE glory days. However, I want to thank BARRY for helping my son SSGT RICKY FIGUEROA by getting him settled in on his new assignment at BARKSDALE AFB Louisiana area. The true meaning behind the ENROUTE FAMILY helping other ENROUTE families. In NOV 2012, my son and I had the pleasure of seeing him for the last time to reflect on the upcoming reunion in SAN ANTONIO. Barry, we will miss you.-------FIG
