Not sure what to say?

Barton,

It has only been a few days since you left us, but it is becoming difficult knowing that you are no longer here. You lived life to the fullest and we all had some great times, just not enough of them.

We, meaning the brothers including Lee and Steve will miss you terribly. My prayers are still with you as well as JJ, Claire, and David. I will try to be there for them as best that I can.

I love and miss you bro

Ted

Barton and I became great friends at Broughton and it deeply saddens me that he was taken from us at such a young age. I lift up the entire Salisbury family for peace and comfort during this difficult time.

What a shock. My prayers are with everybody..Jeanette and the kids and the brothers Ted and Steve..

Barton and I were friends from Aldert Root Elementary. What great times we had at each others' houses and with that special gang of friends. The Salisbury's had a great basement! We stayed somewhat in touch as adults, but losing a childhood friend is really a blow. My mother and Barton's mother were also very good friends.

I know Barton loved life and had a lot of fun in...

Prayers are with you all. Barton was a great little brother to Ted, and he was cool to hang with the "older kids" when we were there shooting hoops or for overnights. May you all find comfort in God's loving arms.

Barton was my friend and I have very found memories of spending the night at the Salisbury's. Growing up we had the same baby sitter, Mrs. Bridger who would play one set of kids against the others " those Salisbury boys are just delightful, and I enjoy making them fudge becuase they are such nice children........" apparently she would tell them the same thing about us.

Puff the poddle, mixmaster milkshakes, make out parties in the basement..........

Barton I will miss...

My best, and great sympathy to all the family. I am so sorry for your loss. Barton was a very sweet and kind person--I was pleased to have met him again recently after many years and get a chance to catch up with him, and look forward to seeing him again, up there.

I was a classmate and friend of Barton's at Ravenscroft. My thoughts and prayers are with you.
