In retirement you could find Barry fishing with his son and friends or sitting on the deck taking in some sun having a cold one. Traveling with Midge and seeing some sights and laughing with friends. He loved his granddaughters and was very present to watch them pursue their favorite sport and for many years assisted coached with son James for volleyball.
A very special and sincere thanks to the ICU staff at Victoria General. Superb people and personal care and just honestly the best support for such an unsure time.
