Our Anniversary

Barry,
You have been on my mind today. We were married 18 years ago today. I miss you so much. I wish I could be in your arms again! Just know how much I love you, Always and Forever! Your one and only wife, Crissy

2 years ago

Baby,
Two years ago tonight at 7:22pm you left us, you went home to God. The three of us; me, Bentley, and Sophie miss you. Today, the pups sat at the back door waiting for you to come home. This was quite sad! We love you! Be happy and watch over us.
Love you.

One Year Ago, sad

My husband Barry, I cannot believe it has been a year since you passed away due to that horrible accident! You will be in my heart forever! Please Baby, rest is peace. Where ever you are, you can run, play racquet ball, and dance. Be happy! Never forget our two loving pups, they miss you!

I just read about Barry’s passing. He was my sophomore college roommate. He was so talented and beloved by everyone who knew him..He was a unique talent and I’m sure he is sorely missed by all.

With regard
Tom Kuzma

I Miss you so Much!

Barry, I miss you so very much! Christmas was very difficult without you! As I sit here crying my heart and eyes out, I think of every day!
Bentley and Sophie have been so sad without you Barry! Every day at 6pm they go to the back door looking for you to return home. BooBoo, I love you so much! I will miss you the rest of my life!

Indian Guides

I started to worry when I had not heard from you and my entreaties did not get any response. Then I learned from this page that you had passed. It broke me. I was closer to you than my own brother, which he knows, by the way.
I remember the campfires at Indian Guides, when the boys were 5 or so and how much I looked forward to sharing those experiences with you. You kept me grounded during my very difficult divorce and I kept hoping that you could maybe make it to India and see where I lived and worked, but it was not to be.
Crissy, he loved you with all his heart. The second time around gives you a better understanding of whom you have become and how to share it with the one you love.
I traveled 6000 miles to find my true love, but Barry found it much closer to home.
I am so sorry, Crissy. He is a wonderful man who brought joy to so many and I will miss the paraflying days which he enjoyed so much. Flying the the Grumman Tiger with him, etc..
I will miss him so much, but he also taught me to be positive and upbeat, no matter what. A lesson he taught from experience.
Bless you Crissy. You were loved.

To My Husband

Barry, it was 20 years ago this evening that we met at Target (RT 100 Exton). It’s not the same without you baby! I miss you so much each and every day! I hope you are smiling and singing!
I went to Target this evening; I sat there thinking of you and praying for you! I love you!

My memories of Barry go way back. Being in their while he and him and Uncle Bill singing in perfect unisone members of a Barber shop quartet. The motorcycle henand Danny rode around the circle as my parents forbid me to ever own one. ( I've owned 4) God bless you Barry you shall be missed but im sure you and Uncle Bill are singing away again.

Our Pups Miss You!

My darling,
Every day since we lost you both Bentley and Sophie have been looking for you, missing you. They go from room to room, then to the back door. Barry, it will not be the same celebrating Bentley’s third birthday without you!
In fact, nothing is the same without you! I miss you so much every day!

Kindness and Positive Energy

I was so sorry to hear of Barry's passing. I've known him my entire life since my family lived next door to the wonderful Shellington family in Coopertown. I'll always remember his barbershop quartet visiting my did in the hospital right before my wedding. Boy, did that lift my dad's spirit. He was a gifted singer and musician. I have several great musical memories of Barry and his family. We;d pop next door for a visit and beg his dad Bill, who we called Uncle Bill, to break out the Ukulele and sing us a song. Another special memory I will always remember was Barry sitting in our living room in Wayne, I can't remember the year, and playing and singing Blackbird on the acoustic guitar. I was mesmerized. You could say it was like seeing the Beatles on Ed Sullivan. I had to have a guitar.

Most of all, I will remember his kindness and positive energy that he generously shared with everyone. You will be missed Barry. I'm a better person for knowing you and your family.

Great Friend

I first met Barry in the early 90's as a paraflying customer who over the years became such a good friend. Always so positive. I'll miss the good conversations and his presence.

The Love of My Life

Oh Bsby! I cannot believe I lost you 4 weeks ago! It feels like it was yesterday! I miss and love you so much! You were so excited to cone to me thst Friday night; hearing you tell me how much you missed me and that we would have a special weekend, hearing the love in your voice . All of a sudden you were gone. My darling Barry, I know you are free of pain and in peace now. I will love you and miss you forever!
Your Bride,
Crissy

God Only Knows

How does one say good-bye to their best friend of 60 years?? The only consolation I have is knowing that you are now at peace, comfort and, most of all, finally happy. As in life, you will be missed and loved by many. Forever in my heart until we meet again. Always your "Rebeeka"

“Burger” (I don’t even know how he got that name)

The two things that come to mind when I think of Barry are his musical talent and his laugh. He inherited both from his father. I was extremely fortunate to grow up in the house next to the Shellingtons. I can easily say that I owe my career choice to the Shellingtons. Bill Shellington passed his love of music and entertaining to Barry. Barry and my brother were in the band “the Stains” together. I followed with my own band in high school and fell in love with instruments and entertaining. So, I became a music teacher. Barry and I sang together in a Barbershop quartet called “Four Fun” and we had some great times together. The highlight was being on a competition stage singing a caveman routine. I can still hear Barrys high giggle laugh as we practiced and sang together. I was also very lucky to sing with Barry in a quartet called “The Father and Son Tones”. It was Barry and his father, Bill with me and my father. I will certainly cherish those times.

Barry my dear sweet husband, I will miss you always. When I look at this photo, I remember how happy you were on our wedding day. As I close my eyes, I hear your hearty laugh, the stories you told and the pain you lived with daily. You will no longer suffer. May you Rest In Peace and know how much I love you! Your adoring wife, Crissy
