I have so many wonderful memories of Uncle Barry... from Long Lane to today... via Brittany, Tallinn and Cyprus... with clipboards and that red jumper... the dog agility days...
I cherish those childhood memories of Uncle Barry so dearly but I really love the memories since being older... family parties at Forest Lodge... toga outfits in Cyprus... dinners at the White Lodge. Yes - Uncle Barry, Auntie Linda and Julie - you really were there for my first date with Andy (and Uncle Barry definitely played it cooler than the rest of you!)... or just sharing a bottle of red (or maybe a couple of bottles if we're honest)...
I wish I could be home in England with all the family right now but wherever we are our memories of Uncle Barry will be with us... in each of our hearts forever. Our lives were all the better for having him as part of them.
Carlee and Andy
