I met Dave on line at VBCity and soon came to appreciate his enthusiasm, helpfulness and generosity. Always willing to give; never expecting or accepting anything in return - an unusually unselfish combination of traits in this modern, material world that made him a special person.
His lively personality and friendly approach will long be remembered by his friends here on VBCity.

David you will be greatly missed. Thank you for all of the help on VBcity. You always went out of your way to help me. God bless you.

Dave gave of his time freely and happily. On more than one occassion his help and guidance have allowed me to stop working on a problem I couldn't figure out and spend that time with my family. That is something that I can never repay but will hopefully someday be able to provide to somebody else. Dave you will be sorely missed and I can only hope you know how many people you touched during your way too short stay with us. God speed.

To Fred and Nancy, My deepest regrets as I did not have the pleasure of knowing David, but mourn your loss as if I did with much coming from reading the excerpts about him and what a special person he was. I wish you all peace as you did me following my grandmothers death last year.

Dave,
Just to let you know buddy, you left a huge gap in our community. Your altruistic way of helping others, witt, knowledge and exemplary determination will be painfully missed. And although your presence with us was relativly short, you sure have made an everlasting impression.
To Mr. and Mrs. Barr, family and friends our heartfelt condolances and deepest sympathy.
Your friends at vbCity

Dave, you were a very humble person expecting nothing in return for all the things you did to so many people, including our community, VbCity; You won our appreciation, your legacy will remain with us to honour your memory; We will miss your cheerful participation, your encouraging words, we will miss you mate.

Dear Mr and Mrs.Barr,
Although David and I have never physically met, we were good online friends. He was a member of the same programming community as am I. We chatted quite a bit in those community forums and via e-mail.
His aspirations were seemingly endless and had a god given gift for programming. I wish I knew him better as I am sure I could have learned a great deal more from him. Please know that Dave will be missed a great deal and has left a significant void in many people’s lives.
As you know, we will all see him again in that great place were all good souls are reunited.
My sincere condolences, David Wilburn

Mr. and Mrs. Barr
I met Dave 18 years ago at Westport Amoco. Dave had a flare for welcoming people into his life and became friends with everyone he met. I spent a lot of time with him over the years, good years, and will cherish those memories forever. Dave was a kind, generous and outgoing person and could always be counted on in time of need, he was ready to help everyone he met without hesitation. His warm smile was contiguous and it infected everyone around him. I am going to miss him but I know that now, he’s in a better place and will make others smile. He will always be in my heart.
Although we lost him so untimely, I know his love, kindness and enthusiasm affected many people whose lives he’s touched.
Fred and Nancy, I am very sorry for your loss, Dave was a great friend, thank you for always being kind to me.
Your friend,
The Martin Family

Mr & Mrs Barr there are no words to describe how truly sorry my family and I are for your loss. As well as for all Dave's friends and for those who did not get the chance to know him. Dave was a great friend and helped me through some very tuff times in my life. He always had away to bring out the best in everyone's life that he touch. I am so thankful and proud to have had him as my friend.
Dave you will truly be missed by all of us. Until we meet again, rest in peace my friend and save me a seat.

Dear Mr. & Mrs. Barr,
Words cannot express how sorry I am for your loss. Please find comfort in knowing that Dave touched so many lives in a spiritual way. Not only could Dave make me laugh until I had tears streaming down my face, he was able to touch my spirit. He loved the beauty of Arizona and shared so many beautiful photos that his talent captured. I will miss him dearly.

The last time I saw David was when he helped us out when one of our cars broke down. He was so very good-natured and had a consistent smile on his face. I always knew how much he was loved by you, and I think it speaks volumes that he left his life in CT to be with you both in Arizona. Words cannot express how sorry I am for your loss. I hope that you will soon be able to look back at the quality of those 37 years and use all the happy memories to sustain you. You have my deepest sympathy.

I am so sorry for the loss of Dave. I was completely shocked when I saw his obituary in the paper. We had never met, but e-mailed for about 2 years. It was a joking, fun, give each other crap kind of e-mailing. I will miss him!! Please accept my thoughts, prayers and condolences to the Barr Family.

Dave was such a great guy. He spent many holidays with my sister, brother in law and their children. If Dave was going then i would go to because you knew it was going to be a fun time. Dave also got me out of many automotive jams and always knew the right thing to say to difuse stressful situations. We are so lucky to have had him in our lives, he will be sorely missed.

I met Dave in Andrew Warde High School in Fairfield, CT in 1986 and we immediately became good friends. We worked together at Westport Amoco for a short while and then went on to other opportunities. We have remained in contact over the years and over the last two years stayed in close contact. Dave was an excellent mechanic as well as an extremely amiable person. Dave was full of life and was game for pretty much anything from Rock concerts to flying cross country and climbing mountains. Dave had an uncanny ability to make people laugh and feel happy. Not just your normal everyday laugh but a body convulsing, aching laugh. Dave’s generosity goes beyond principle to where he would literally give you the shirt off his back. He has personally helped me more with my business than any other individual and would not accept a penny. He was able to do on a computer in five minutes what would take an established computer professional 5 hours. He could run circles around any computer expert I Know. His photography skills were also very sharp and over the years he has sharpened mine. Dave did not have a college degree; however, he was one of those individuals that trully did not need one. He was passionate about his work and determined to complete the project and achieve the best possible result.
We will all truly miss you Dave. You are a good man.
Your old CT friend,
Lawrence Hayward
