Husband of our cousin, Alicia, Barrie was a kind and delightful man, interested in all and every. His genuine concern for us and willingness to share his life when he was in Boyup Brook was continued by his daughter Claire. We know that David, Adrian, Claire and families will sadly miss Barrie, as will his sister Jennifer and her family.

Condolences to David, Adrian, Claire and extended families.
What a loss! Barrie was a true gentleman who we have known for a very long time. He always had a smile and a good word to say.
It was our pleasure to have known him as our trusted accountant and in later years as a member of the singing group "Sunset Singers", of which we are members. He was always regular and reliable.
Unfortunately we are unable to attend the funeral service on Monday, but shall sit quietly and watch the live stream later.
Stay on key and keep the books balanced up there Barrie.
Warm wishes to the family from Phyllis and Lori Mirco
