Hello all. Sad news about a fellow Alumni. Barry Fletcher (J '76) passed away last night around 6 p.m. from a massive coronary. Barry's wife, Karen, sent me an email this morning....I was able to talk to her late this afternoon. The service is this Wednesday at 1 p.m. (CT) in Chicago. Barry was a very special person and loved Drake & Drake Basketball. He & I kept in touch, especially during basketball season. If you knew Barry and would like to send Karen a note or something, please let me know and I can email you the address. It's something I don't want to post. Thoughts & prayers to my friend!! Jeff
