Barry and Jean have been wonderful neighbors for 24 years. We were heartbroken when they recently moved but looked forward to the many trips to hang out with them at their new home. Little did we know his life would be taken so suddenly. Life is not fair. We knew we would miss them not being so close, but not gone forever. Our heart aches for Jean. They were always together, and looked forward to so many more years together in there new home. So sorry for this terrible loss…We are beyond heartbroken.
So sad to hear of Barry’s passing. We were co workers as kids, bagging apples and doing general janitorial work at Mapleside Farms in Brunswick, Ohio. We always had lots of fun while accomplishing lots of of work! He was loved by everyone who knew him! Ted Williams
My deepest condolences to the family. May he rest in peace.

Barry has been a treasured member of the Decker team as the DFL Quality Control Manger since July 21st, 2014. He was a hard worker dedicated to Decker’s successes- we will miss his even-tempered sensible approach to business but importantly we will miss him as a loyal and wise friend. What a wonderful person and colleague. He will be greatly missed by us all.
Jean, you and your family our in our thoughts and prayers. God Bless!
