Dear Barb and family,
Angela and I are very sorry to hear of Barry's passing. Barry made it possible for us to purchase our dream home and property. Without Barry's wisdom, experience, honesty and decency, we would not have been able to navigate through the complexities of 2022's housing market.
Barry always would say to me: "Keep smiling." And he lived up to that message.
Barb, it was a pleasure and an honour to become regarded by Barry as a friend. He brought sunshine into days, and I was also honoured to be able to catch up with Barry and meet you on a fine day a couple of months ago.
I will remember that day as special. Angela and I will miss Barry very much.
Our sincere condolences to you.
Selwyn and Angela.

So very saddened to hear about Barry's passing. We really liked and respected Barry, genuine and decent, he gave us good advice over the years, a good neighbour we regarded both of you as friends.
Although our health situation means we cannot attend tomorrow. We will be with you in spirit I assure you.

A priviledge, an honor to know and work with. Bazza (BazM8) you were ethical, honest and fair to all you came across. How do I sum you up? Your smile, your sincerity, your sense of humor - lit up any room you entered.
