He worked at Outboard Marine Corporation for 35 years. To know him was to recognize the devoted husband of 71 wonderful years to Jean (Chambers) dedicated Dad to Bill (Andrea) and Heather (Ray) much loved Papa to Nora, Alison, Sarah, David and Great Papa to Georgia Parker and Silas. He will be missed by many nieces and nephews. Pre-deceased by John and Nora Clarke and siblings. He enjoyed sharing stories of his early life in Toronto full of sports, social activities, and friends. Arriving in Peterborough in the 1940’s, Barney met Jean the love of his life and was quickly welcomed into a new job and friends while he honed his skills at golf and bowling! In his retirement years Barney could be found listening to his favourite Big Band music and being creative in the kitchen.
