Trustee Barry Levine

Barry Levine, Homer Library Trustee, PALS trustee, and friend to many, passed away last night.

Barry loved the library and was a wonderful supporter and advocate for books, reading and literacy. He will be greatly missed by many people and organizations that he devoted his time and energy to. His passing was unexpected, and his wife Phyllis remarked to me that he was listening to a book when she found him. Barry would think that was a fine ending to his wonderful life.

We extend our deepest sympathy to his wife, children, family and friends.

Barry has been our trustee and advocate for more than 13 years. For me, it has been a pleasure and an honor to have worked with Barry for 12 of those 13 years. This man, our trustee, our advocate, our friend, will be sorely missed.

The arraingments are pending.
