Condolences for
Barry A. Helfer

Dear Barry and Jean, I Love you both so much for starters. It is hard to say good bye for me to a TRUE blue friend. This was sudden for me that has me reeling that Barry has left us. Barry and Jean has had an impact on my life and our family in such a positive way. Barry will always be with me and is a part of me in all of my actions as a man, husband, father and a participant in society. The twinkle in his eyes will always be my way of knowing him. He expressed and exuded Love always in his conversation and actions with no reservation. What an open book for me to learn from. I will forever be grateful for him and his wife for the company and open friendship. Barry, god speed my dear friend and I will look for you on the other side. I love you! Your friend always, Rob~

I will miss my bike rides over to see Uncle Barry and talk about his motorcycle. I have his picture in my room so I can always see him smiling.

Love,

Cory

Yo Barry, we didn't know each other that long but I did like you and thought you were a good man. We rode together a few times and I had so much fun riding with you and Jeanie. I remember when we all met at Myrtle Beach in 04 and you rode all the way down there on your bike. You said you were not looking forward to the ride home. And again, in 08 you did it again. Man you must have had an iron butt. You are a friend, a fellow biker, a military brother, my soul mates brother, what's not to love, your friend.

Dear Barry,
You will never know how SAD I am at this time. I never thought I'd lose you so young. We take life for granted too often. I just want you to know I Loved you and still Love you no matter what. I will miss you dearly. I remember all the fun times we had double dating, going to Atco and just being crazy kids. Like you always told me I was adopted, but yet I look just like you!! How funny is that? LOL You loved to tease me and Mom too. I just hope you are partying together with Mary as well.
Until we meet again. I Love you and pray for you wishing you peace and eternal life.
Your Loving sister, Karen

My heart is hurt but when I look at the picture of Barry with a smile, I remember that was the way he allways looked. He lived life on his terms and was honest and fair in all that dealt with him. Coversations about life after a day of riding was about positive thoughts. My prayers for Jean and family and a sincere thank you for allowing us to enjoy and love Barry as you did. The road of life has some turns we never like. Barry will be remembered by many for the man most of us hope to be. Gone but never forgotten.
