I've known Barry and Kathleen for over 10 years. I employed Barry twice and on both occasions it was one of the best decisions I've made over my working life. We have remained close friends even when on other sides of the world. Barry is one of life's gentlemen. Supportive and conscientious and an ideal candidate to House sit.
