Dear Dad,
You are missed more than you will ever know! I know it is very selfish of me to want to keep you here on earth with us, but deep down in my heart I know you are with Grandmom, and with your sisters, brothers, Ronald, Danny and so many others! You no longer have any pain, and you are young again! I thank God for that! Find a guitar Dad, and sing to us from Heaven! You could have been a famous country singer with your great voice and talent for playing the guitar! You are a Man who wore many hats! I can't think of anything that you could not do, or figure out! You have been through so much, and you never complained! You are an amazing husband, father, father in law, grandfather, great grandfather, and friend to so many! I use the word are, because I know you are still with us, watching down from above. I (we) love you Dad, with all of our heart and soul! Catch my hugs and kisses! I will see you again! Not sure when, only God knows that, but I will see you! R.I.P Dad love you!

Cathy, Kevin and family,
We are so sorry to hear of the passing of Cathy's dad. Our thoughts and prayers are
with you at this difficult time. We won't be able to attend the service as we are in Florida for the winter. We so appreciated your being there for us in the passing of our son, Mike.
We didn't know your dad but we want you to know that we care.
Sincere Sympathy, Doug and Nancy

We are deeply saddened for the loss of (Great) Grandpa VanBarriger. We have kept him as well as the entire VanBarriger family in our thoughts and prayers for many months. Though far away, we hold everyone close in our hearts. We are especially grateful we were able to spend time with him this past summer 2016. We will never forget sitting around the table having coffee and sharing stories. To Grandma, Larry, Aunt Cindy, Aunt Carole, and Aunt Kathy we love you and offer our deepest sympathy, and hold you in prayer that Almighty God will give you peace and comfort at this very difficult time.
