I remember my younger days playing baseball at butts road intermediate and seeing Barry there coaching Daniel. Through them days hanging around the park I developed a friendship and can say he had a passion to teach and work with kids and a love for the game…… Rest in piece .My thoughts and prayers are with the family.
Wow! Seven years ago and I just found this. We, the McKenna family, are so sorry to hear about this. We’ll never forget those days on the baseball field, Barry was such a great, fun and encouraging coach. Again, so so sorry to know this. All our best to the family.
