For all who knew my husband, I want you to know that he was a true treasure to his wife. I am truly grateful for all the wonderful memories he has given me. I realize that Bear pampered me in many ways. I will always miss him.
His wife, Jan

Jan, Steff and family: What can I say?? My best childhood and life long friend, gone. I can still hear him calling me...WAAALLLLL. We continually fought, but not for long, only to go onto the next project. I smile every time I think of all the things we got into as kids growing up. Barry was a rare individual who I am proud to say was my friend. May God give the entire Despot clan the strength to get through these tough times. My and Cheryl's prayers are with you.

Dear Stephanie and family,
It was such a shock to hear about Barry. My first thoughts were of how I was his first babysitter. It just doesn't seem possible. It was such a short time ago that I held him and rocked him to sleep. You have my deepest sympathy. Try to remember at this time, God NEVER gives us more than we can handle. HE is always with you. Stay STRONG. You are in the prayers of many people who love and care for you.
Love, Carolyn

Dear Jan, Stephanie and families,
Our thoughts and prayers are with you. Barry was a kind and gentle cousin. I will always remember when Barry came to Washington and we went swimming in the lake when we were kids. We will keep the memories of Barry in our hearts forever.
