Barry Shaffer

How Barry Shaffer learned one of life's most important lessons over car repairs, woodworking and shooting the breeze with a very influential person: his dad.­ It may seem strange to think that working on a car would be a life-changing experience, but Barry Shaffer wouldn't change a second of the time he shared with his father while repairing cars in their garage. The Right Way:­ Ever since he was young. Barry's learned some great things from his dad--how to fix an engine, repair a damaged chassis, even woodworking and racquetball. But perhaps the greatest thing he taught Barry was that if you're going to d something, do it the right way.­ In other words, never accept less than your personal best and always go after what you want. Barry truly respected his father's sage advice and he applied this drive and commitment to everything. In turn, it shaped the course of his life. As a result of this tenacious attitude he's found true happiness as a husband and a father of three great kids. He's also found great success and respect as a one of the area's leading businessmen.
