Prior to that Barry worked for American Specialty Foods, Surplus Tractor Parts, and S.B. Foot Tanning. His first job was at Fairmont Foods in Moorhead, MN.

In addition to working hard, Barry enjoyed many activities including: bowling, golf, hunting, and being outdoors. He spent many hours meticulously and proudly caring for his yard and property on his John Deere lawn tractor. He also enjoyed being seen and occasionally showing off in his bright yellow Toyota FJ truck. Barry knew how to enjoy life and share that joy with others. His sensibleness, joviality, and sharp sense of altruism will be missed dearly by those who knew him.
