Barry,
We love you and know that you are at peace now. Just want to let you know we always thought about you and I asked about you all the time. You were so easy to talk to, fun and had a sense of humor. You also read your Bible and had good advice. We will miss you always. To our family you are dear to our hearts. Love you very much. RIP.

Barry was a very dear friend of mine.
He was loved by me and my family here in Texas. Barry was a Godly man and read his bible on a daily basis. He loved the Lord and always shared is spirituality with everyone he met.
Barry was very talkative and friendly to people he met. He would talk to strangers like he knew them for years. When Barry lived in Texas me and my family adopted him into our family. We loved him and treated him as our own family. Barry liked Texas but got an excellent job offer in Augusta, Georgia that he could not refuse. He was very smart and loved to read. Barry cared about other people's well being and would share his knowledge with everyone he met on taking care of their health. BARRY, me and my extended family will miss you dearly. We realize and accept that the Lord needed you more in heaven.
To be absent in the spirit. Is to be present with the Lord. BARRY me and my family will forever love you and remember your caring heart. We know that we will see you again in Heaven.
LOVE YOU BARRY AND WILL MISS YOU SO, SO MUCH.
MARTHA MITCHELL AND FAMILY,
NORTH RICHLAND HILLS, TEXAS
