    Dear Karen, Raeleen, Paul and your beautiful families… I’m so sorry for your loss. Barry was such a beautiful man who touched so many lives. I was honoured to have been able to spend a small part of my story with Barry and you guys in Te Awamutu. I’m also so grateful that I had the chance to catch up with Karen and Barry in Brisbane recently… it was as if 40 years had passed by in a blink. Thinking of you all today and always. Much love Lauren (and Keith, Alex, Nick and Molly). xxx

    Barry you will be sorely missed. Your love and loyalty to Karen was legendary. Awesome friend, will always be remembered as the man with the pencil behind his ear and a ready smile. Keep growing those huge tomatoes and we will all meet again one day.
