Do not stand at my grave and weep. I am not there, I do not sleep. I am a thousand winds that blow, I am the diamond glints on the snow. I am the sunlight on ripened grain, I am the gentle autumn's rain. When you awaken in the morning's hush, I am the swift uplifting rush Of quiet birds in circled flight. I am the stars that shine at night. Do not stand at my grave and cry, I am not there, I did not die... RIP uncle Barry. We love and will miss you always. Zoe and Andy xxxx

It brings tears to our eyes having to say goodbye to such an amazing man. Our lives will never be the same knowing that we will never see your cheerful face again. You will always hold a big place in our hearts. The dear gentleman that my children chose to call their uncle.

  • Chris and I have lived next door to Barry and Mo for over 8 years and will so miss Barry’s smiling face over the garden gate and when I popped next door to see them. Such a lovely man always smiling even though his health wasn't good for many years. Barry you have now earned your Angel wings 💕and we promise to look after Mo for you x We are both thinking of the whole family at this very sad time, I know he has left such a big hole in the family and many friends too as he was such a great character Sleep tight Barry Gill and Chris at no: 11 The Glebe

Even though we didn’t see much of Barry in recent years we are so grateful that we had the chance to reconnect more recently and he was the same Barry as always with his wicked sense of humour and always happy to see us as we were him.Will always remember him at the fireworks display at St.Mellion more than 30 years ago laughing at our Adam and Barry would often mention it too laughing again.
Such a happy,genuine man and definitely an impossible act to follow but will always be remembered with a smile.
Our deepest condolences and love to Maureen and family.
From
Lin,Dave and family.xx
