I am so sorry he’s left us but I’m sure he’s definitely left a mark. I’m just a very old friend from linden days.

I've known Barry since the Bantham bowling league at Northern Lights Lanes. His parents Bud and Elsie were my first bowling coaches. Barry and I were on the traveling team together. I have fond memories of him. My sincerest condolences to the family.
