Barry's obituary
Born in Denton, Texas, raised in Pilot Point, to YO and Linda Bradford, Barry grew up as a quiet country boy on a turkey farm with his parents and three sisters with a strong work ethic that he carried with him through his life.
After he graduated from Pilot Point High School in 1981, he started bowling, which gave him a love for the sport. As the years went on, he came across a new passion. Evelyn. During 1985, Barry met Evelyn and went on to have two children, Bradley and Cynthia. Barry always put his family first as a dedicated father who taught his kids to share the same love for the sport of bowling that they still carry on with today. His love for fishing and enthusiasm for metal detecting will also be carried on by his children and grandchildren.
Barry was a strong, kind, loving, and supportive father. He was his family's biggest cheerleader in any activity that they were involved in. From pushing his wife to go through the Denton County Sheriff's Office Police Academy, to his son and daughter wanting to do 100 and one things growing up. Barry could be found on the sidelines, in the stands or wherever his children needed him to be in their times of need.
Barry was predeceased by parents, YO and Linda, his sister, Sandra, father in law, Frank Singdahlsen. Barry leaves behind his wife, Evelyn of 34 years, son, Bradley, and daughter, Cynthia. Not to forget his daughter in law, Audrey, two adoring granddaughter, Kana and Zaria, along with his two sisters, Lisa Carter and Mary Simmons, mother in law, Armenta Singdahlsen, two sister in laws, Loretta Gruenes and Signe Singdahlsen, 7 nieces and nephews, 8 great-nieces and nephews, along with countless "extra" children that were his children's friends that he treated like his own. No services will be held at this time and the family requests no flowers.
