So sorry to hear this sad news about Barney.
I met Barney through his trade union work initially but came to consider him a friend. Always willing to believe the best in people, and commited to improving life and work for those who put their faith in him. Rest in peace bonny lad.
Just heard the sad news Barney and I knew each other for many years through the union, branch meetings and going to the union conferences
My condolences to Barney’s wife and family
Barney was a steadfast support and friend to those in need. I am honoured to have known and worked with him. Sincerest condolences to his wife and family.
So sad to hear about Barney. He was always available for advice and a friendly ear. One of those people who made life better for others. My condolences to Barneys wife, son and wider family.
I met Barney in his Trade Union work when he was assisting and supporting my husband through a difficult time. Sadly my husband has is no longer with us but I remember meeting Barney and recognised in him someone who genuinely cared for those with whom he came into contact. He treated everyone with courtesy, respect and compassion. He was diligent in all he did, and was gifted in pursuing the best for everyone without sidelining anyone. I only knew him for a very short time but he left an impression of genuine goodness, strength of character, and was always smiling and reassuring in every situation.
My deepest condolences to his family and friends. He will be sadly missed and remembered with fond regard.
Worked alongside Barney some 20 years ago and found him to be a passionate and unyielding but fair TU representative. Will always remember the odd trout and great conversation he shared. My condolences to family and friends.
I first met Barney in Beleek over 30 years ago and he provided wise counsel many times since then over the years. A true gentleman taken too soon. RIP Barney.
So sad to learn of Barney’s death. Deepest sympathy to his wife, son and family circle. RIP friend.
Fermanagh has lost one of its greatest, genuine characters, but nothing can compare to the loss that Celia and Rory are bearing. My heart is at home in Kesh with them and all Barney’s extended family and friends. I will always remember that broad smile and the wise cracks. I could have sat chatting to Barney for hours and never grown tired of the stories he told of him and my dad getting up to mischief in the good old days! Thanks for the music and the memories Barney. Sleep tight.
My cousin Barney remembered always
