Scrubs VNVLV M/C Relation to Deceased: Brother Hey Brother Bear, We shared some good times, and some not so good I guess. But, you were probably one of the most stand-up guy I ever rode with. You’re not hurting any more. I picture you ridin ole “Black Betty” up there with thunder chapter. You always gave Bubbles and me all the respect we could ask for, plenty of laughs too. I was proud to ride with you Bear. You will be sorely missed. Rest in Peace Scrubs I think no matter where you stray, That I shall go with you a way. Though you may wander sweeter lands, You will not forget my hands, Nor yet the way I held my head Nor the tremulous things I said. You will still see me, small and white And smiling, in the secret night, And feel my arms about you when The day comes fluttering back again. I think, no matter where you be, You’ll hold me in your memory And keep my image there without me, By telling later loves about me. Dorothy Parker
Scott Morse Relation to Deceased: son in law Bear I learned from you about the kind of Father I wanted to be and the relationships I want to have with my children. You have no idea the impact you have had on me as a person. I will never forget you.
Roger Alloco Relation to Deceased: Brother Bear, you mean so much to me. You helped make me the man I am today. You taught me how to trap and hunt, how to build and ride motorcycles. You taught me about love and respect and how to stand up for myself and not take nothing from anyone. You taught me street smarts. All things I cherish that cannot be learned from a book. Most of all you were always there for me in the best times of my life and the worst times. We are alike in so many ways and misunderstood by many but not each other. We talked and understood each other as only we could. You let me tag along on all your fun adventures, even when I was a little kid. Who wants to drag their little brother around like you did! The best times of my life. Thank you brother. I love and cherish you now and forever. You are my brother, my father, my friend, and my mentor. ‘Til the wheels fall off brother, I will see you again. Love always, Roger

Pat McVean Relation to Deceased: Friend of Family Roger & Family I’m sure you have alot of great memories of his life. I didn’t know him personally but knowing Roger & girls I can imagine what a great guy he was. Those we love remain with us for love itself lives on, and cherished memories never fade because a loved one’s gone. Those we love can never be more than a thought apart, far as long as there is memory, they’ll live on in the heart.
Ol Man & Bonnie We will always hold your memories in our hearts. Ride hard with the angels my friend. When I hear the rumbling in the sky I will know it’s you on your Harley letting the rest of us know you are watching out for us. You will never be forgotten. Rest in Peace my friend.
Melissa Vandetti-Lawrence Relation to Deceased: Family Friend Barry…there are so many memories in my 35 years of knowing him and loving him!!! Never thought we would be coming up to say good bye so soon…There are no words to say except we all loved you very much and you will be forever missed!!! God bless Kathy, Stacy and Nick! May you keep all your memories close to your heart and may he live forever in each one of you! The celebration of life, shared in the beginning, and again, in the end. Yet we forget to celebrate it, in every moment we live. Time, days, years, go on, but are we alive? Alive and do not know it, sleeping in the world and dead to the life we are to live. To celebrate all life, the sparrow who sang in the morning, and died in the night, why do we not celebrate its life? To know thyself is to know you are alive – to give, to love, to seek truth, beauty, and suffer pain. In life as it is meant to be, pain is forgotten, and strength is all that’s left to be gained in the moment by moment celebration of life. By Deborah Peabody

I promise to always be there for Kathy, Stacy, Nick and their families, just as you were. Ever-flowing, limitless love to you Bear. Forever and ever from your Big Sis.

Chris & Kim Hall Relation to Deceased: Best Freind and Brother I Have lost a freind and brother that I spent a good 20 years with and 30 years apart. The 20 years was just about every day together and the 30 was thinking about all the things we did as family. To know Berry was to love him or you hated him I dont belive there was a in between for him. My heart goes out to Kathy, Stacy and Nike my heart is broken and I will miss Berry very much but no one can take away the memories. I will miss him every day for the rest of my life.

Chris (Brown) Partanna God bless and keep you Barry. Sorry your life was so short but I think you lived it to the fullest and in your own way. As we look back over time We find ourselves wondering ….. Did we remember to thank you enough For all you have done for us? For all the times you were by our sides To help and support us ….. To celebrate our successes To understand our problems And accept our defeats? Or for teaching us by your example, The value of hard work, good judgement, Courage and integrity? We wonder if we ever thanked you For the sacrifices you made. To let us have the very best? And for the simple things Like laughter, smiles and times we shared? If we have forgotten to show our Gratitude enough for all the things you did, We’re thanking you now. And we are hoping you knew all along, How much you meant to us.

Chris & Kim Hall Relation to Deceased: Best Freind and Brother I Have lost a freind and brother that I spent a good 20 years with and 30 years apart. The 20 years was just about every day together and the 30 was thinking about all the things we did as family. To know Berry was to love him or you hated him I dont belive there was a in between for him. My heart goes out to Kathy, Stacy and Nike my heart is broken and I will miss Berry very much but no one can take away the memories. I will miss him every day for the rest of my life. The butterfly emerges from its silken shell- Reborn, it arises, no longer bound to earth. Free at last, the butterfly glides to heights unknown before. So do our loved ones find a beautiful release as, earthbound no more, they leave our sight and joyfully rise to a garden of matchless beauty, a place of light and peace. -Evelyn Phillips
Chris (Brown) Partanna God bless and keep you Barry. Sorry your life was so short but I think you lived it to the fullest and in your own way. As we look back over time We find ourselves wondering ….. Did we remember to thank you enough For all you have done for us? For all the times you were by our sides To help and support us ….. To celebrate our successes To understand our problems And accept our defeats? Or for teaching us by your example, The value of hard work, good judgement, Courage and integrity? We wonder if we ever thanked you For the sacrifices you made. To let us have the very best? And for the simple things Like laughter, smiles and times we shared? If we have forgotten to show our Gratitude enough for all the things you did, We’re thanking you now. And we are hoping you knew all along, How much you meant to us.

“Moses” VNV / LV MC Mike Kerr Relation to Deceased: club Brother We shared good times Brother. I will keep your’s alive in my heart. You are missed, Ride hard in Thunder Chapter. G.B.N.F. I think no matter where you stray, That I shall go with you a way. Though you may wander sweeter lands, You will not forget my hands, Nor yet the way I held my head Nor the tremulous things I said. You will still see me, small and white And smiling, in the secret night, And feel my arms about you when The day comes fluttering back again. I think, no matter where you be, You’ll hold me in your memory And keep my image there without me, By telling later loves about me. Dorothy Parker
