Barry Willett Torgesen Sr.

Dad, Every time I listen to your folks songs (which is too much!!) I cry .... I miss you so much. I know you are with us as we continue on this journey. You were a man of unmatched character and moral righteousness that I can only hope to aspire to. I love you. Your wife dearly missed you...but I think you know that. Rest in peace father.

Just expressing appreciation for his decades of Love and Caring towards Rosemary (Costigan) and his children, All Gods Blessings upon his eternal soul. From a long distance "family" friend. Peace be with YOU all.

Thank you Jeffery for your input, which was beautiful. We all know and remember so well the help you were to Mom and Dad during your times of solitary. No expense was ever made to see to their comforts or updating them (mainly Dad), on the new technology and conveniences of our times even when he fought you, he was happily surprised and bragged about your efforts repetitively. You spent a great deal of your time with them in those days and thankfully Douglas could carry on where you left off....

Dad, you and I are one in the same; cant accept your loss just yet. Hopefully we'll find our way in the next life. Miss ya so much. Love Maurya

Thank you everyone for your attendance today and remembering Dad. Admittedly not comfortable expressing myself with words on this subject and would prefer to never have to. Rather avoid and delay.
Watched Dad grow old. I even started to think about his mortality when he lived beyond the years of his parents. However this is a man that just last Fall was on the golf course. Even a few weeks ago he said he wanted to get better soon so he could get back out and play again.
Dad was my...

Barry and I worked together at DSHS for many years. He was a well-respected friend and colleague (and a quality softball player in the early 1980s as well !). My thoughts and prayers are with the entire Torgesen family. May God's peace be with you all.

Always a gentleman. We will all miss your sweet, wry humor. Rest in Peace with the Lord.

I love you Dad ♡ I know I will see you again in heaven till then your in my heart , love your daughter Margie

I loved you and I'll miss you.
