Barry A. Lasky

Barry A. Lasky, February 18, 2024

Barry was a bright light in the lives of his cherished family, each of whom was flawless under his doting gaze. As the Chief Creative Genius of Hi Ho Helio, he brought joy, amazement, and sincere appreciation to literally thousands of families who trusted him to lend his many talents to life’s most special occasions for over thirty years.

However, it was sixteen years ago that Barry found his one true calling…that of a Zayde. Nothing brought him more joy or better utilized his boundless love, quick wit, limitless patience, and joie de vivre than being a grandfather to Raisa, Zachary, and Asher. He even had business cards printed up with this new title! Barry’s devotion to his grandchildren was reciprocated in spades. We know, without question, that Zayde will continue to be a guiding light and gentle hand as they move through life’s challenges and celebrate the joyous events to come.

Beloved husband of Ellen Mallen Lasky for over fifty years; treasured father of Jeremy (Michelle) Lasky and Amy (Jason) Pollock; cherished grandfather of Asher Lasky, Zachary Pollock, and Raisa Lasky; devoted brother of Jack (late Dolores) Lasky, Harvey (Cynthia) Lasky, Trudi (late Marty) Rosenfeld, Stuart Lasky, and Phylis (late Thomas) Hennessy. Adoring son of the late Max and Mollie Lasky; steadfast uncle, cousin, and friend to all, including his biweekly poker group of fifty years.

Graveside Service Tuesday, February 20, 2:00 PM at Chesed Shel Emeth Cemetery, 650 White Rd, 63017.
