I think moving here to NC changed me quite a bit but as I grew older I found I was more of an extrovert than I had been before. But, Barry did help me overcome my shyness and self-consciousness because he believed in me and thought I was smart. He appreciated the best in me and I loved how he met people and how everyone loved him. Hope you will comment again.Glenda Beallhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17953170428175025248noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8160021015821033799.post-16982563037695445292021-07-09T10:32:50.360-04:002021-07-09T10:32:50.360-04:00Abbie, thanks for stopping by.

If you were as shy and self-conscious as you say, some of his innate charm rubbed off on you over the years.
