Barry Lamar Ridley

Barry “Uncle Roo” Lamar Ridley, 70, passed away peacefully Monday, January 10, 2022. He was a great communicator, you could tell he loved you, by the way he looked at you. Barry was always a hard worker his whole life, and was a popular figure in his community. He had several health problems in the latter years of his life but never complained. Most of all he took care of, and loved his children.
