Norma,
I am sorry to hear of your loss. My sister and I were going to come by, but I decided against it at the last moment. Maybe someday, when my daughter comes back from the Philippines, we will come by and say hi.

Norma & Rebecca & Charlie, I am so sorry to hear of your great loss. Dr Barclay will be remembered for so many things I know but for me I will always remember his love of telling jokes. When I worked for Olde Town Ins. he came in every day with a joke or a funny story. I enjoyed working there and getting to know him.He will never be forgotten and will always have a special place in my heart.

Such a wonderful man. A good friend of
my family in both sickness and in health.
One thing that will be missed is his great sense of humor. He could always make me laugh.

What else can be said for a man of so many accomplishmnets? A true hero. "Doc" made an impression on my life and career. He will be greatly missed by me and countless others.

Dr. Barclay was our family doctor for over 40 years. 4 generations of my family saw him as our doctor and our friend. He was a fantastic physician and caring friend and confidant. There was no one like him anywhere. As a child I remember him meeting my mother at his office at all hours of the night for years as she suffered with debilitating migraines. He was a truely remarkable man who cared and lived his life like a true Christian. He lived a remarkable life, and may God bless and keep him.

Dr. Barclay was a great customer and extremely nice man. He always made me laugh when he ordered his meal with just three french fries but always had room for his large vanilla sundae. He will be greatly missed at Lobscouser Restaurant.
