barrie freed Obituary

Barrie Youngfellow Freed passed this past Monday night. She was 75. She called Woodstock, NY her home since 1989. She loved the town and the friends she met there. Before retiring she worked as an actress on stage and television starring on the long running series “It’s a Living”. Born in Cleveland, Ohio where she performed the title role in several productions of Peter Pan. She could fly with the best of them. She was the best of friends and had many loyal ones. Loved a good story and a nice bottle. Had a great laugh that confirmed her sense of life. Even during her decline, she could shoot off a good one liner. She was so nourished by the care and kindness and love that she received from the staff at Ten Broeck Rehab. Thank you, Catskill. She was married to her husband of 39 years, Sam, who was almost as important to her as her dogs and cats. She is survived by her sister heide rivchun of Cleveland and her sister Kim Rivchun of Providence, RI. Cremation arrangements are under the guidance of the Joseph V. Leahy Funeral Home, Inc. 27 Smith Avenue, Kingston. www.jvleahyfh.com. In lieu of a donation please give someone a loving hug. https://www.lastingmemories.com/barrie-youngfellow-freed

I always enjoyed watching you act on It´s A Living. You were always a great actress. R.I.P. Barrie.

If you're up there watching over us, Barrie, thanks for giving "It's a Living" to the world. What a great theme song, what a great cast, what great writing. And your superb acting helped bring it all together to create one of the best sitcoms of all time. I go to bed at 3:00 am because that's when IAL ends on Rewind TV. Thanks for the memories!

She played one of my favorite characters on It's A Living. And her single appearance roles in Barney Miller, WKRP in Cincinnati, and Three's Company we're also quite memorable.

My sympathies to Barrie's family and friends. I always enjoyed her performances. Whenever I would see her name in the credits, no matter what the show/movie was, I knew I would enjoy her performances. She was both funny and serious and could play any character. She will be sorely missed. My prayers to you all.

Barrie, you were a great "suite mate" in college. We did have wonderful times. Cleaning out some old photos and found some good ones of you, Moe, Gayle and myself. You did have great one-liners then as well. You will be missed. Bless you.

From The Red Shoes to Tiger Lilly to Peter and more, this other Peter always admired your talents and learned so much from you. May your memory be a blessing, Barrie.

Much sympathy to Barrie´s family and community. I´m just a fan of Barrie´s from her wonderful, vivacious TV work. I just wanted to say her performances really brightened my time growing up in the 80´s and my friends all loved her on It´s a Living/Making a Living too. Glad she lived a happy life in Woodstock and wish her loved ones healing and peace.
