Barry will be missed. He was a good friend and a good neighbor. He had many talents, from fixing a car to hanging a door, building a shed or gazebo, remodeling an entire kitchen or bathroom. He was always willing to help out, especially at church functions, showing up early to cook or set up or clean. He will be missed.

The one thing we will always remember about Barry was his willingness to help others. Barry was unbelievably generous with his time and his talents. He could fix anything and he was always willing to help people. It is impossible to think about him without a smile on your face. He was a good man and was the world's greatest neighbor. Barry will certainly be missed by many. Deepest sympathies to Kelly, Rachel, Chris and the Buerke family at this time.
