Barry will be remembered for his love of his grandchildren, fishing, woodworking and going to the cabin. Barry volunteered his time with organizations like White Snowmobile Club and was so contented when he was driving the groomer. Special thanks to our many close friends who have helped so much in the last few years when Barry was sick. And thanks to the staff at Labrador West Health Center who went above and beyond.
Funeral Service will be held on April 24th at 3pm from the Anglican Church with Rev Rowena Payne officiating. In lieu of flowers donations can be made to the Labrador West Hospital Auxiliary, an organization that he spent many hours volunteering with. (contact Violet Tarrant 709-944-1362)
