In memory of Uncle Barnie, whom i once knew as a child. A man, who i remember as being gentle, kind, strong, funny, and of strong moral character.
I had the privilege of knowing Barney and learning many automotive skills. Barney was not just a mender of cars, but a mender of hearts as well. My sincere condolences to the family and friends.
