Uncle Barry, it’s hard to believe that your gone. But we must remember the good times and cherish the memories. You will be terribly missed, but your spirit will live on forever. Rest in peace Uncle Barry…
Love for eternity,

my dad was great he helped me and I loved him so much I did’nt want him to leave me so early.
As his father I am very proud of who my son became. As a man tho he had fallen on very hard times and our relationship had become highly strained. He had found those traits that god would be proud of.He was kind, forgiving, loving and held no malice toward anyone! I’m so glad he was my son>Thank you GOD!
Barry will be remembered.
Barry was the spark that lit my candle 12 years ago thus the light I now emit on the darkened pathways is from my brothers guidance,forgiveness and the love of two.Barry,our dad and Jesus Christ.
May you find peace in
paradise.
In brotherly and Christian Love,
Mike

He was a good man. but it was time for him to leave somethings happen for a reason. but god said it was time to go.
So sorry to hear that I lost my dear friend Barry we lost in contact when we was in Corsicana been looking for you but I guess it’s late may you rest in peace my dear friend from your friend Linda will miss you dearly.
I don’t know how many times I’ve came back to visit this page, looking for something different or something. I just miss my dad very much and getting older makes me realize how much more special and important the place in my life he holds. So many unanswered questions and missed memories, I wish I got the chance to relive the moments we had together and cherish them even more. Being a child you don’t realize the significance of certain situations like this. I am very sad you are gone but I hope you’re in a better place. The sweetest man I have ever known… I hope your grandson inherits your beautiful soul.
