Barney took over his father's clinic the famed Cleveland Clinic in Ohio. Became well known and some what controversal in the medical field, authored four or five medical books.
Jane and Barney also authored another diving les-known and there fore rare book "More than Booty."McGraw-Hill-1965-LCC # 65-23819. Jane passed on before the book was published; Barney dedicated the book to her.
Barney married Carl Sandberg's daughter, Hilga. They co authored, as Hilga Sandburg & Barney Crile one diving book: "Above and below; a journey through our national Underwater parks" Mc Graw-Hill-1969, LCC # 76-98489.
Hilga authored a number of adult and childrens books.
Barney passed away about 12-15 years ago. Hilga, if still alive, would be in her mid -to upper 80s.
One of the girls, the "slow one" passed away. The other girls are married to doctors and are living a good life in Cleveland Ohio reaping the fruits of their grandfather and father's labors who made the CC world famous.
Barney,111 lives in New York city and is a producer for 60 minutes. Watch the show and every now and then his name appears as the producer.
None are envolved in diving as a hobby nor have they written any thing about their adventures in the early years of diving.
Barney authored three diving books, two with Jane and one with Hilga
