One of my oldest friends !
Barry, David "Leroy" Tucker & myself became friends @ 1963 when we moved to Franklin Ave. Although two years separated each of us, I being the youngest, we became fast friends !
Our parents were just that "all our parents" for many years following ! As we grew older we went our separate ways in life, but I for one will always cherish & never forget those days & my two close friends !
I'm so sorry for your loss Mrs. Minnie, Love you always !
Rest in peace my old friend & fish with your dad in heaven !
Love Always, Stevie Reed

Barry was a dear friend early in life, we spent many days hunting and fishing together. Our adult lives took us in seperate directions, during our brief encounters at NNSY we both enjoyed catching up on our life events. Barry was a devoted son to some loving parents, who I so enjoyed as a teenager. Also displayed a large smile when talking about our children. I will never forget the memories we created. Rest in peace my brother.
