To Barry's family:
My name is June, and I grew up in Elizabeth NJ, 3 houses down from where Barry and Mr. and Mrs. Neall lived on Fremont Place. I remember playing hide and seek and tag with Barry and his cousins, the Meincke boys. They all moved to Florida from NJ when I was about 14, and I was so sad to lose them as neighbors and playmates. I just looked at the picture gallery with tears in my eyes. Barry has beautiful children and grandchildren and seemed to enjoy them all. I had lost touch with Barry for many years, but a few years ago, his sweet cousin Carol hooked me up with Barry via e-mail, and we e-mailed for a few years before he became ill. We would reminisce about growing up in Elizabeth, NJ and I so enjoyed hearing from him!! My heart is very sad today as I think of dear Barry, but my faith tells me that he is in heaven now with his parents, who loved him so much. I will see him again one day, but I will miss his presence here on earth. He was a special guy who seemed to be loved by everyone he knew. Rest in peace, my dear childhood friend from Fremont Place! Be a guardian angel for your wonderful family now that you've earned your wings! And keep an eye out for me, too! I love you and will miss you, Barry. June Sankus Loughrey

Our sincere condolences and prayers to all of Cousin Barry's family. He always lovingly welcomed us when we visited from NJ, especially our parents, his Aunt Elsie & Uncle Andy. I will especially miss Barry's emails & phone calls that kept us connected all these years and of course our special visits. Barry was truly an amazing man and will be missed.

Capt Barry Neall gave me my physical agility test to be a Daytona beach pd patrolman. The 100' aerial fire ladder truck was ok, but climbing over the 8' wall was stopping me from being on the job, until he hinted at a knot-hole in the wall to get a toe-hold. Capt Barry Neall was a 990(orange av) legend, old guard, Daytona's finest, a grrrrrreat cop/sup/admin, with a heart. It was an honor to have served with him. Thanks sir & God bless you captain & yours.

My heartfelt condolences go out to the family. Captain Neall helped shape many fine police officers. His expectation of excellence from those who worked under his command was matched only by his sense of humor.
