I’m so sorry to hear of your family’s loss. Please accept my condolences.
Uncle Dick, to say you will be missed is definitely and understatement. A great guy who always had time to answer any car questions I ever had, no matter how obscure or stupid. Thinking back on all the time we spent with you guys over the years and all the sleepovers Pete and I had by your place back when you lived down here. How you ever put up with the two of our obnoxious butts is beyond me. Much love and sympathy to Aunt Joanne, Ricky, and Amber. I know theres alot of miles between us but if theres anything you guys need feel free to call.
Uncle Dickie will be missed by us greatly . I am proud to be part of this family . We are praying for Amber Ricky and Aunt Joanne . We love you all and will be here for you whenever you need help.
My heart goes out to the families and friends of Dickie. He was a funny, caring man and I have many memories from my youth spent with him, Joann, Amber and Ricky. May he rest in peace and may his loved ones find comfort in fond memories. Lots of love!
My Dear Friend, Words can’t express the sadness in my heart for the loss of your beloved husband . For your Family the loss they also have suffered., We send Our Sympathy and Love, God Bless You All . Love Jeanne & Joe Rykiel
I have experienced the loss of a close family member enough to count on two hands, just as the many in the Barker family have also, but even so, it does not make the pain any less hurtful, nor does it take away the shock and realization of losing such a special person such as my great uncle, Richard Barker. My thoughts and wishes for peace go out to all the family and friend who knew him. I will never forget, I will always remember, and I will keep my memories along with my many others. I love uncle Dick, and I always will. R.I.P
– Love, Naddy
