My husband Jerry and I were friends with Barry at Valparaiso University. So happy to have known him.

I was a client of Dr. Hollowell's at Janus Associates. I can say, without exaggeration or cliché, that I will be grateful to him for the rest of my life. His kindness, professionalism, and care have helped me in so many ways. My condolences go to his family, and my gratitude goes to him. I will miss him and celebrate him every time I apply his advice and teachings. Thank you, Dr. Hollowell.

Dear Kevin, Kate, Josh, and Mark,
Our friendship with Barry extends back many, many years to our time together at the Episcopal Theological School in Cambridge. Kate is our goddaughter and we visited numerous times over the years. Even though we had not seen Barry since his Consecration in Calgary, our grief is still deep. Please accept our condolences, thoughts and prayers, and God willing, we might get West to see you someday too. Our love to you all, Merry Hunt and David Lillvis

I met Barry when he first came to Fredericton and was a chaplain on the university campus. His guidance and advice were an important part of my time as a student.
