+Barbara Bradshaw thank you for your comment! RIP George!
a man and his friends and family that have seen more change than most anyone in the history of the world and who was in the middle of that change and adapted to the change like the hero he will always be remembered as. What a life to be celebrated and that has made so many of our lives much better... I was lucky to meet George and spend some time with him, thx to Ms. Penny Pichette, another great person... Thank you so much for that !

I was fortunate enough to meet Barris and shake his hand at the ELMIA car show in Sweden, i was 14 at the time and didn't quite understand how much of an impact he'd had over the years.

Working on a project on Dean's "Little Bastard" - would have loved to have had the chance to have interviewed Barris as the film is based on the curse and disappearance... Anyone with any stories/connections?
