Barry worked for Nabisco as a regional sales manager and lived in Seattle when he hired me as a sales rep. in Eugene, Oregon in the late 70s. Barry was one of the most colorful guys I’ve I met. I always enjoyed his wit and sense of humour. We had a great team and I always enjoyed our sales meetings, best restaurants and good times. Farewell Barry. - Posted by: Dennis Lee (Friend) on: Jul 06, 2023

I was very sad to hear of Barry's passing. I work at Costco and he bought tobacco from me every couple of weeks. He would always greet me "Hey it's Mighty Moe". We used to have some great conversations and many laughs together. He was a wonderful man and I'm so happy to call him my friend. I will miss him very much. Rest in peace Barry - Posted by: Maureen kasprick moe ( Friend) on: Nov 19, 2012

I was an old girlfriend of Barry's going back to the days at Melrose Junior High in East Kildonan. Was shocked and saddened to hear of his passing. He was a genuinely nice guy. - Posted by: Nancy Harvey (Friend) on: Nov 18, 2012

Barry bought his tobacco from me at Costco. He was a wonderful man who always yelled a hello from the entrance so we always knew it was him! He spoke with such Love of his beautiful daughters and his grandkids! And always told us of his many trips to see his girls! My condolences to his family. Barry will be truly missed. - Posted by: Lori Houde (friend/cashier) on: Nov 17, 2012
