Happy Birthday from Marion, Buff, Chris and Katie!

Stuart Bartle was a beloved neighbor and friend on 95th street in New York. Our families went to Wellfleet, MA in the summers.
Aside from sharing similar locations,
Stuart had also shared time as a student of my father Carl Binger, MD, who was a psychiatrist, and practiced in NYC and, later in Cambridge, MA. 
Stuart was probably instrumental in saving my youngest daughter’s life.
When we lived in New York on the same block, my daughter, then ten years old, became gravely ill with an allergic reaction to phenobarbital. We were caring for her at home, as best we could.
At one point, my husband and I bumped into Stuart and anxiously told him how sick our daughter was.
He said, “Well, if she were my daughter, I’d take her into a hospital immediately.”
We acted on his advice, and just in time, too.
That daughter is now 55 and in great health, with two children of her own.
I have been so grateful to Stuart for his sage advice, ever since.

He was a compassionate, lovely and wise person.

Happy Birthday, Pop. All of us here in Massachusetts miss you - miss celebrating the birthdays, miss seeing you and miss talking to you most of all.

Happy Birthday Dr. Bartle❤️

When I was a very little girl I used to sit on "Stewey's" back and wash his hair while he leaned into a sink. I remember that the last time we did this was when he was leaving for the army.

Think of you so often

Dad
The curiosity and unselfish interest that you have lives on in your grandchildren

Miss you Stuart. I am the only one left now.

Thinking of you Dr. B.

Happy Birthday Dr B.  Miss you at the Brien Center❤

Chris and I spent last Thanksgivng weekend in Boston with our daughters, then ages 5 and 7.  On our way home Dr. B was so excited to have us come to visit him in his new place in Cambridge. Although much more frail, he was his usual warm, interested, inquisitive, delightful self. My girls were immediately engaged and comfortable with him. We caught up and had a wonderful visit. He continues to leave a hole in our heart.  Chris and I often think of what Dr. B would say about world events today. He had such a gentle world view and I could use his perspective to keep me sane. With Love Heather Biernacki

Worked with Dr. B for many years at Berkshire Mental Health. He was so thoughtful, caring and had the best sense of humor. Will never forget you. oxoxoxo

My thoughts and prayers to the Bartle family.

With deepest sympathy. The staff of the Austen Riggs Center.

A rare, wonderful man who always brought a smile to our lives. We loved him and will miss him deeply. We shared a love for Africa, and loved his great sense of humor. With fond remembrance, The Mears family

Our hearts go out to you, Marion and family. Your father was beloved. When you close your eyes I hope you remember his laughing and enjoying all life had to offer. He lives on in you.

Love,
Alice and Tom

Marion and family, I am so sorry to hear of your "Poppy's" passing. My thoughts and prayers are with you. It never gets easy to have to say good-bye. I send you hugs and strength. - Debbi Darling

This lovely notice captures your father's enthusiasm for life, wit and compassion all of which are in abundant evidence in the subsequent generations of the Bartle family - for which we are all grateful! xox Becky

With deepest sympathy to and your family, Marion. From the tributes above, your father clearly lives on in you. With love, Ali

Easter always reminds me of my wonderful uncle. For years we gathered as a family in New York for Easter dinner. Stuart would be in the kitchen busy at work on his traditional Chinese Easter soup. I miss him already, but have years of lovely memories.

Stuart was my wonderful, wacky God-father. I could not have asked for a better one. Church was definitely not part of the equation. Love, acceptance, laughter, adventure, sense of perspective on life, intellectual pursuits - all of those in abundance. i will miss you dearly and have lots of memories to keep you alive in my heart.
Much love and sympathy to everyone he touched and especially to his wife and family.

Our deepest sympathies to the Bartle family. Dr. Bartle was such a close friend to our entire family. His charm and good spirits will be missed.
Chris, Liza, Alex and Carlie Rice

My family and I join in sending our heartfelt sympathy to Barbara and to the entire Bartle family. I have wonderful memories of days as neighbors on 95th Street, and good times in Wellfleet. Stuart was a rare and wonderful person.

My dear, dear, cousin Stuart! With all my grandparents gone, Stuart filled in beautifully as an almost-uncle. What a lovely, lovely man! My father turned into someone else, with ridiculous chortles in the corner of the room, when they got together. I think he was more brother than nephew to him, and I know they adored each other. I always looked forward to seeing Stuart and Barbara for all their lightness and joy. Very much missed forever, and huge hugs to all of you - what a sad loss in your lives. With much love, Katrina

We are thinking of you and your family at this difficult time and wish we knew your dad. He sounds like he was quite a guy. much love Laurie and Henry

A wonderful uncle who will be greatly missed. He will live on in his four terrific children and all those he effected in his life.

We will ll always remember Dr B. as a very special man......

Eugenia and Haldor Reinholt

Our deepest condolences on the loss of your dad. Wishing you peace and comfort at this difficult time.
