Not sure what to say?

I will miss him. Knew him from WWOH. had a great sense of humor, fun to be around. He helped us when we needed it most, build roads and clearings for the Walkway, we could not have done it by ourselves. Also gave us much help on the board as Vice-Chairman. See 'ya later Bernie !

Barney was a great guy,he will be very sadly missed by everyone who was touched by his love and kindness. Every time you saw him he say hi and give you one of those chuckles that he gave. welove and going to miss you Barney.

Remembering your great love story today and always.

Barney was known for his love of pratical jokes. When I turned 18 (legal drinking age), he gave me my birthday present. It was delivered to my house as it was soooooo big he could not possibly give it to me at NorAnn's. There it was a huge water cooler cardboard box.

I remember your smiling face at NorAnn Drive In. Rest in Peace.

Barney was a legend, and a friend! I'll always remember his visits to our house on Cross Road, always knowing seemingly 'everything' going on everywhere! Such an interesting person he was!! I'll cherish my memories of him forever! My sincere condolences go out to his family for their great loss!
