In Remembrance of Barney Zick

A farmer went out to sow his seed. As he was scattering the seed, some fell along the path, and the birds came and ate it up. Some fell on rocky places, where it did not have much soil. It sprang up quickly, because the soil was shallow. But when the sun came up, the plants were scorched, and they withered because they had no root. Other seed fell among thorns, which grew up and choked the plants. Still other seed fell on good soil, where it produced a crop - a hundred, sixty or thirty times what was sown."

This is the life of a great teacher and Bernard "Barney" Zick will be truly missed by so many!

I believe it is safe to say that Bernard "Barney" Zick has been vary influential to the success of many investors with his strong leadership and his own articulate delivery of education to so many will be of lasting value to many.

Teaching is a balancing act: placing expectations on the student and becoming engaged with students requires a seriousness of purpose and a playfulness in approach that is more easily described than carried out. In one sense, the balance must be struck between structure and flexibility; in another sense, the balance lies in finding the right mix of instructor-directed learning and student-directed learning and Barney truly had the right mix.

Well done, Bernard "Barney" Zick! Our thanks to you for your lessons and example of what it means to be a great teacher.

You will be truly missed!

Be very, very careful what you put into that head, because you will never, ever get it out.
