Dear Elizabeth,

We are so sorry for your loss.

I remember well the days when you and Barry were dating. You two were made for each other. The smile on your face as you two walked hand in hand said it all. I remember your words, “Barry is so sweet”…I’m sure he said the same of you. I hope you will find comfort in your memories…they will always be in your heart.

Love,

Janet and Brian Lillington

Elizabeth,

Since we last spoke many years ago in Halifax time has raced by. My memories of the great times I shared with you and Barry will remain for ever as if they occured a much shorter time ago. We were young and all heading on our big adventures in life, Barry fulfilled his dream in becoming a police officer. May all the memories you and your family have when thinking of Barry bring a smile and warm feeling inside you of a great guy he was. My sincere condolences of your loss.

Words cannot express how much love and light are being sent out to you. Barry was a fixture of mine, and many others childhood growing up. All our families together for BBQ’s, school events and sleepovers (even if he did yell at us to stop jumping from the railing onto the stairs below) and even picking us up from the bus stop on his way home from work just because ….. He was a true gentleman and hero both personally and professionally. He will be missed.

Sending love.

Barry is remembered as a gentle kind person. My regards to all of his family. Sgt MMcgraw #1881 (retired)

Oh Lizzie. I am so sorry to hear about this and send my deepest condolences to you all. Hugs and prayers being sent your way.

Barry worked in 1-1 when I was a Sergeant of that zone.

My condolences to his family.

Barry will always be remembered by his police family.

Losing someone close to you is always too much, too soon. Remember the fullness of what you shared, and lean well on those still with you. They are the ones that share your life, and can also share your grief.
