Barry's Story
Life
My Spouse
She worked with my mother for a year (they had become friends) and she made my mother's wedding cake (when my mother re-married). My mother asked if I would mind dancing with a friend of hers at the reception. I told my mother that I was going to marry her friend a week later. My mother made our wedding cake 6 months after we met and we celebrate2 our 31st anniversary earlier this year. We live in Norton, OH and can still get to North Hill in 20-25 minutes.
