Barry is survived by his brother David McEwen (Mary). He was the dear uncle of Anne McEwen (Peter Stabins); and was predeceased by his niece Jane McEwen-Pearson and will be remembered fondly by Jason Pearson, great nephews Sullivan Pearson, Max Pearson, James Stabins and great niece Claire Stabins.
A private service of committal and interment will be conducted at Greenwood Cemetery in Owen Sound in the New Year. A public celebration of Barry’s life will take place in the near future when family and friends are able to gather safely.
