Bruce and I had the honor of knowing Barrie for years. We remember his coming and showing Bruce how to do a rafter and eave board just right. No messing with it– ” Do it this way”. Bruce finally got it right but other times he would seek out Barrie’s advice on carpentry and Barrie was only too eager to help. He was truly a great friend and neighbor. Hold your memories dear as we will.. Pls accept our deepest sympathy at this difficult time. Barbara , remember we are just a couple of houses away if you should need anything. Bless you..

So sorry to hear of the passing of Barrie. I worked with Barrie at Atlantic Whls. and i would always stop at his section to say Good Morning to him and have a quick chat. A finer man i have never met, always willing to help in any way that he could. In fact, once he was finished with his duties, he would always come help me with mine. He always was in Great spirit and told a few jokes along the way too. He always spoke with Great Pride of his Family and he thought the World of them. Barb,Jeff,Angie and Families, my deepest and sincerest condolences to you all.

You might not think that Barrie is thought of out here in Vancouver, but he is! Who could forget that smile, that sense of humour and that readiness to try anything. “We’ll find what works, Mark!” And he did! No problem getting a work crew, he had so many friends. At the drop of a hat, you had a crew of six and the roof was done! When a 100 foot pine crashed into the top of that old house in Grafton in the middle or winter, Barrie was there! That old house still stands and Barrie is a big reason for its existence. But apart from that, Barrie was a great friend to many and loved by so many. Barrie would help you out wherever and whenever. He embodied the best of North Queens. He helped make it a special place. He was a great Nova Scotian, the kind of person who makes everyone around the world want to come to Canada. Yes, Barrie is remembered out here as far away as Vancouver. When I look across the bay and up at those mystic mountains, I like to think of Barrie. It makes me have faith in the goodness of people. I was shocked by Barrie’s passing and Letizia and I extend our sincerest and deepest condolences to his wife and to all his family at this very sad time.
Anne Kempton
My sincere condloences to the family in the passing of Barry. May he rest in peace.
