Barry passed away leaving behind a lifetime of stories, laughter, dedication and love for his family. Family meant everything to Barry.

Barry spent his first 7 years of life on the dairy farm on Sanbornton's March Road. He enjoyed this life, with the dogs, cats, calves, cows, and draft horses. Barry attended all eight grades at the Sanbornton Central School, and he graduated from Winnisquam Regional High School in 1972. On May 06, 1978 he married the love of his life, Linda Butler of Tilton. Over these early years, he gained many friends that he kept in touch with and then gained more friends as the years progressed. Barry was truly wealthy with friends, and they all valued his friendship.

Barry had number of jobs after high school but finally found his true calling when he worked for the Wolcott Paving Company in Gilmanton for 30 years. Where he performs several increasingly important positions, the owner had him last doing the important job of running several of their big asphalt rollers and his skill was evident in their finished product. His favorite roller was the 120.

Barry was someone who always wanted to stay busy. If he was not working at his vocation, he was raising his garlic, caring for a large family vegetable garden, chopping and storing his house and sap house wood supply, reading a good book when time allowed, sharing pictures and stories with anyone who would listen about his 3 grandchildren and what they were up to, visiting with friends and family and, always willing to help someone whenever such help was needed. He was an active member of the AA community for 33 years It has been said that he also had two favorite pastimes-he always looked forward to making maple syrup every year, and he always looked forward to the next family story written by his brother Gene.
