A friend whom we haven't known long...but he made an impact on our life in his knowledge, advice, & just plain "Sailor Commaderie"! You know how you just know......well Barry and Ruth are those people!!

Barry loves to Sail!
 He's a man of many talents...Surveyor...Canvas Man...Rigging Tuner...the list goes on!
He spent many a day working with John doing projects on Our Way.
Up til Barry was too weak to speak he worried and whispered to Ruth about his beloved

(Barry & Ruth's Website & Log)

He is truly a Sailor, totally in love with his Ruthie, Buddy, and a special friend to many.
Barry, we will cherish the brief moments we were able to spend with you. 

We are thinking of & praying for his family today while they celebrate Barry's life and say "Goodbye". 

Especially Ruthie...

Barry & Ruthie

Thank you God for the Grace, Patience, Love, and Strength

 you have instilled in this beautiful woman to endure the past 2 years...

Thank you for keeping her strong even as her heart was breaking.

She stood solid in faith & in love. 

I am so proud of her & pray that her strength remains, her faith remains strong, & that you guide her as she learns to continue her life without her Husband by her side. Amen.

She stood by Barry's side through everything~a dedicated Wife & Best Friend...

she drove herself unselfishly to care for & see to it that Barry

made his dreams come true...

She became the "Woman who could do Anything!!

She jumped in an RV...(Motorhome) and drove cross country to fulfill a dream...

The Grand Canyon!! Wow!! 

Barry was elated!!

She crossed off things on the "Bucket List" & made that man smile!! 

They were the "Love of each other's Lives!"

She was so unselfish...she did whatever made Barry happy & comfortable.

Barry...We will keep you in our hearts until we meet again...

Ruth...You will always have a spot for hanging out with us on Our Way Too!!

Love & Hugs~~
