Working alongside Barry, I realised his huge impact on so many people. Even though he had many projects on the go, he would always find time for a chat and some gentle mentorship. His commitment to giving people a hand up will remain with me forever.

A great loss. Dr Barry taught me C++ back in 2002. His style of teaching and empathy for students was unparalleled. Thanks for sharing this post.

Sorry for your loss. He was a brave man to fight against apartheid.
