I just read of Barry’s passing. Candi and family, pls, accept my sincere sympathy and prayers for peace and comfort during this difficult time.
I remember his mom walking with him to Rodichok’s Farm every evening.Barry said, I’m going to work there some day! You will be greatly missed. My condolences to the family.
Candi, Adam, Josh and Casie,
Seeing this picture of Barry smiling gave me some comfort. Knowing and working with Barry was always a pleasure. He was a gentleman, a hard worker and would do anything for you if needed. He loved you all so much and spoke very highly of his family. I miss him and will always cherish his friendship. May God bless you all and help you through this difficult time.
