WHEN I COME TO THE END OF MY JOURNEY
AND I TRAVEL MY LAST WEARY MILE
FORGET IF YOU CAN, THAT I EVER FROWNED
AND REMEMBER ONLY MY SMILE.
FORGET UNKIND WORDS I HAVE SPOKEN;
REMEMBER SOME GOOD I HAVE DONE.
FORGET I EVER HAD HEARTACHE
AND REMEMBER I HAD LOADS OF FUN.
REMEMBER I HAVE FOUGHT BATTLES
THEN FORGET TO GRIEVE FOR MY GOING,
I WOULD NOT NOT HAVE YOU SAD FOR A DAY.

To all family and friends....my sincerest heartfelt condolences.

To Barry, my dear friend.....sun,surf, and us; No regrets
When the sun sets in the west
I'll always remember your best.

Dear Nash Family,
I am sorry to hear of the passing of such a nice man. Barry was a fraternity brother of mine. I remember him as a very caring person. He always wanted to make the world around him a better place. I know he accomplished that. My deepest sympathies to you. Rod Layman

To the Nash family,
Barry was my oldest friend. I don't remember any friends before him that I'm still in contact with today. I think we met when we were about 10 years old. We remained friends through many years, many good times, some bad times, and many heart to heart talks. We experienced the peace of seeing each oters families grow.
I'll miss him.

So sorry to hear about Barry. We enjoyed all the good times at Maine Day in Charleston. He also rode to Charleston to Maine one summer with me and we became good friends. I want to wish the family the best. We are in Maine and if there is anything we can do, please let us know.

I only knew Barry for a short 2 years, but we had some good heartfelt talks as friends do...he expressed his love for his sons and daughter many times and I hope you all remember your Dad's special love for you and his love for the Lord. Barry will always be to me a special person from my home state of Maine. Said with Yankee PRIDE!

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.

Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome you."

It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man."

God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.

When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.

I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.

There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.

If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......"My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.

So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.

And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.

Barry,
This is for you buddy. We so miss you as you were part of our family of friends. We had a lot of GREAT and memorable times in the years that we were on this earth together.

You have a heart of care and concern. If only there were more like you.

You are in God's hands now, free from harm or danger. He will take care of you for your eternal life with Him.

We will meet again, when it is our time to go home. Until then, may God bless those that you so loved as well as those that so love you.

Chris, Steve, John and the rest of the gang
