BarrieSPOONEROn 29th September 2018 peacefully at his home in Clayton-le-Moors, Barrie aged 73 years. Dearly loved husband of the late Ruth, much loved dad of Jayne and Allison, dear father-in-law of Eddie and Simon, loving grandpa of Leah, Jack, Alex and Joe, and dear brother-in-law of Barbara. Barrie began his working life as a plumbing apprentice at Jack Lonsdales in Burnley and worked there for 9 years. He then worked with his father-in-law in funeral supplies and remained working in the funeral profession until his retirement in 2010. He enjoyed travelling to his customers and covered Scotland, Wales and Devon. Barrie had a twinkle in his eye and was warm and affectionate with a kind eye for the ladies. He loved painting and drawing cartoons and he was great at DIY. There was nothing he couldn't fix. He was a keen gardener and he loved his home. There was a place for everything and everything was always in its place. Barrie also enjoyed music and completing crosswords and puzzle books.
