Betsy--You and Barney were welcoming neighbors on Killarney Drive when we moved here forty one years ago. Barney at work and play made life better for everyone in his life. God bless him! Ed and Joanne Granai

Dear Betsy, We were saddened to read of Barney's death in this morning's paper. So many happy memories... carpooling Josh & Colleen to and from Mater Christi and their play dates; Barney and Kevin in the annual Burlington St. Patrick's Day parade; and just many happy conversations together. We can never think of Barney without smiling -- and that's a testament to him. His was a life well-lived. We extend our sympathy and prayers. Mary and Kevin Scully ~ Mary Scully, Burlington, Vermont

Betsy, Betty and I wish to extend our condolences to you and your family on Barney's passing. I worked with Barney for thirty years at IBM and always will remember his playing of the harmonica on St. Patties day, walking up and down the hallways having a grand time. He will always be remembered as a great Irishman!

Betsy, Josh, Prudence and Kiernan Barnie was one of kind! A great smile, a unconditional loving person who always was willing to give of himself. You felt a special love and caring whenever you were in his presence. Many people come in an out of your life and they can be a positive or negative influence. Barnie was that unique soul who showed determination, a positive attitude and that "can do" spirit in good as well as difficult times. I feel honored and blessed to have know Barnie. My love and prayers are with you all at this time. Love, Aunt Jo

Who of us 'old' IBM'ers can forget the guidance that Barney gifted us with in the Suggestion Program . Council with Barney and his pipe always led to resolution . God Bless ..

Barney was a true friend and workmate. I still have a letter from him, from 1958, inviting me to IBM for a job interview. That interview with Barnie, which led to a job with IBM, changed my life forever. Condolences from me and my family.
