It is hard to say good bye to a friend, no matter how old or how sick they are. Bill had a zest for life that was contagious. In is 80s he was doing things many don't do in their 40s (biking, kayaking, hiking, dancing at the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame). He reminded me of the line from the musical Fame --- I'm gonna live forever.... but he didn't and I will miss him terribly.

Looks like Bill set an example for us in so many ways.
A long life, fully lived, in the service of His King and to others, should not mourned, but should be celebrated.
God bless Bill Barrows!

saying good-bye to Bill.. Please ping your lists... Canteen particularly.
He was born in 1925 & raised in New England. He had undergraduate & graduate degrees from schools in NE. His work was in sales but his spirit was in fun! He never made a lot of money in this life & died a pauper of sorts but he was rich in the things that matter. I am honored to have called him friend and thank God that we met years ago
With FReeper AFPhys in Grand Island NY (at home of The Mayor) showing off the Wheelbarrow skills~!

Sweet Dolly. Such a wonderful tribute to your close friend. He was a dear, sweet man. I know you’ll forever miss him. God will forever hold him close and dear.
My prayers for his beautiful soul.

WE are losing them one by one. Tom Brokau wrote a book about the Greatest Generation—but Brokau has no idea what those people were fighting for.
God Bless him. And may we some day deserve what he did for us.
