In Memory

Barry Peel

Friends,

It is with great sorrow that we share that our friend and classmate, Barry Peel, passed away on Sunday, July 29, 2012.  I just spoke with his sister, Teri (MHS class of 1979), and she shared that there arrangements are still being made.  We will post details when they have been completed.  I know that each one of who knew Barry have his smile and crazy sense of humor in your mind right now.  Hold on to that.  He was a SUPER guy.  Please keep his son and family in your prayers in these coming days.

Lisa

So sorry to hear this.  Barry was a great guy and his sister Teri was a sweetheart too.  My parents were friends with his parents and they were all very loving and sweet.  I went to church with them for years.  Prayers going up to his family.  If anyone talks to Teri tell her I am very sorry for her loss.
