I knew Lee through his wife, Lois. Lee never minded WW bridge members calling him "Sweetie" which was Lois' pet name for him. He did a program for WW about his journeys on the AT. He was a very interesting man. My sympathies to the family. Cheryl Leu

So Sorry to hear this but know Mr. Barry is WALKING the streets of Gold now. I had the privileged to have worked at Fasco for this wonderful man. He was the most amazing Plant manager, person and engineer. Having a memory unimaginable. I worked there '81-'86 summers and then full time, ~ 4 years total.

I proudly worked for a great man. He is missed by all who had the privilege and honor to have known Mr. Barry. God bless.

He would come by and speak to each employee EVERY morning by their first name and ask if you had any problem and then try to fix them. I think there were about a thousand employees at that time. On Sundays after church I would see him at...

My heartfelt condolences go out to you. I loved Lois and Lee like my own family. I know this wonderful couple has been reunited in Heaven. I had the pleasure of worshiping with them at Ascension Lutheran Church. Their warm friendly presence was felt by everyone.
