We recently heard about the loss of your uncle and our family wanted you to know that we thought he was such a kind and caring man. We first met Barry when he came to the states with his friend Morrie, who is my husband´s uncle, in 2003. They were being shown around the Western US by Morrie´s sister, Yvonne. I brought my daughter to New Zealand in Dec 2004 to travel and see our Baigent family. Barry invited us to stay with him. We hiked Mt Maunganui and he had so much interesting information to share with us. We have continued to stay in touch and he has sent us his bird Christmas cards every year. We are so sorry for your loss! I´m sure he´ll be missed by many.
