My Uncle Barney so many good memories: summers and the lake, peeling lots of corn. Christmas and birthdays and always his favorite question, "Who's your favorite uncle?" a wink, a smile and always a good laugh. He loved to tease, and you knew when he meant business! He was dearly loved and will be very missed. love Kathie
