Souvenirs

HIGH FLIGHT

Oh, I have slipped the surly bonds of earth

And danced the skies on laughter-silvered wings;

Sunward I’ve climbed, and joined the tumbling mirth

Of sun-split clouds- and done a hundred things

You have not dreamed of- wheeled and soared and swung

High in the sunlit silence. Hov’ring there,

I’ve chased the shouting wind along, and flung

My eager craft through footless halls of air.

Up, up the long, delirious, burning blue

I’ve topped the windswept heights with easy grace

Where never lark, or even eagle flew.

And, while with silent, lifting mind I’ve trod

The high untrespassed sanctity of space,

Put out my hand, and touched the face of God.

 

By John Gillespie Magee, Jr.

I've known Barry since I was a 1st Lieutenant in the mid-70s and we were flying EC121s out of Homestead AFB, FL and Keflavik NAS, Iceland. The EC121 was an old Super Constellation with 4 reciprocating propeller driven engines and it took a long time to get anywhere, so we had a lot of time getting to know each other and became great friends. Barry was an excellent pilot who survived many harrowing episodes while flying in Vietnam (an ejection out of his crippled F4 over the Gulf of Tonkin) and a midair collision caused ejection out of a T33 while in pilot training. He flew B52s, C7 Caribou's, F4s, and EC121s. We have remained friends all this time and it greatly saddens me to lose him to his final 'Harrowing Experience". He fought a good fight until the end. I will miss him tremendously. Ulli, I'm so sorry for your loss, Lee Ferrell

Dearest Barry, Fly high, young pilot Soar above the clouds as sun's bright light joins your soul Regale us with the beauty of the vistas you behold Watch over Ulli as she watched over you  Your new flight now begins Send her messages of comfort til you hold her hand again We will all join you when we've fought the good fight Perhaps none so valiantly as you Fly high, sweet friend Dearest Ulli,  You and Barry came into our lives at a time when we were truly in need of special friends. You were our sounding board, and you listened with compassion and patience. And through it all, we had wonderful times together. We shared food, drink, culture, history, and most importantly, deep respect and friendship. We have missed both of you so much since you left Atlanta. I've often thought about how difficult it must have been to endure this illness without longtime friends and family nearby. You brought us close to you through phone calls and texts, but I wish we had been there to give you hugs. You are always in our hearts. We love you, Sandi and Mac

We met Barry and Ulli in Atlanta at a restaurant 12 years ago and immediately became the best of friends. Over the following years we would meet together regularly, every event a pleasure and a special memory. Barry was a courageous and patriotic man with a passion for living life to the fullest. He approached his final battle with the same courage and determination as was his nature. His devotion to Ulli was limitless. One need only ask him about her and he would light up with joy. He made it very clear that he she was the love of his life and his best friend. We assuage our present sorrow by sending Ulli our love, and saying that Barry is not gone, he is but one step ahead of us and we shall soon be back by his side.
