Barry was a truck driver for many years before he trained in Cosmetology and then served the Cameron community for more than 30 years with his barbering and salon services, including opening The Cameron Hair Studio in 1992. Barry had a passion for his local community. He was an active member of many local associations, clubs, and events. He also coached youth sports and touched the lives of many people with his generosity and kindness, creating many lifelong friends. He enjoyed raising his family on their hobby farm and was an avid motorcyclist.
