FROM DAVE CARLYON: Grandma and Will, 1994

Hi, Pat,

In April you posted a cute picture of your son Shane at the Big Apple Circus with Grandma.

It reminded me of my son at Big Apple around 1994. I was teaching theater in Michigan when Big Apple came to the Detroit area. I'd told my boys about working with Barry on Ringling so we were all eager to see it.

During intermission, Barry came out to say Hi and joked with our boys. When he climbed into the ring, my younger son Will—obviously thinking Barry intended to keep playing—climbed in after him. This picture shows Barry doing his Egyptian dance-thing and Will following along.
