I am so very sorry to hear that John has passed. I think of you so very often Hayley, Rose, Jessi, John, and Anaya. What a tremendous heartbreak this must be for you. I am so very sorry that you must endure it’s terrible loss of your beloved husband and father. I do hope that the happy and loving memories you have of him will sustain you and comfort you in the future. xo

In warm memory of John, whom I knew as funny, steady, kind, gracious child long long ago. We'll meet again. Love to all the Barretts.

A true gentleman in every sense.

May the love of friends and family carry you through your grief. I remember meeting John at Wyonegonic when he came to visit you while you were taking care of Chris. I knew then that you two would stay together and I am so sorry about his death.

Bart was a leader in our tight knit neighborhood gang. He also was a gifted athlete pitching us to a championship in '78. I remember a bunch of us holding signs for his brother, Mike, during his successful campaign, and the huge after party at his house. Bart was a kind soul who always looked out for others. My condolences to all of you. Bart may you rest in peace.
