Barry HARTT Obituary

HARTT, Barry William 1945 - 2015 a During sunset October 1, 2015, Barry William Hartt, son of the late Leo and Kathleen (Kay) Hartt of Dartmouth Nova Scotia, calmly passed away in Vancouver, BC after succumbing to cancer and COPD. His son Vishva and friend Miwa were at his side to ease his passage. Born 1945 in Amherst, Nova Scotia, Graduate of St Mary's University and High School in Halifax. Barry was a man of the 1960s who for decades championed children in the care of the BC government. His passion for helping others and speaking his mind made him a memorable co-worker and strong advocate. Directly immersing himself heartfelt in all endeavours, he reached a higher existence, and experienced life more fully than most. Frank, compassionate and sage, his insights enlightened us all. Barry traveled the world, seeking truth and opening his mind to the diversity of our planet. Through experiential living he taught us all to be more open and accepting of others and to find opportunities for growth in our differences. Barry was modest, and lived modestly. He loved to bicycle and walk in Vancouver, exploring nature and the ethnic communities. Barry was a wonderful father. His son, brothers, sister and close family now reflect his spirit; the universe reflects his light.
