Barry Day
March 6th, 2023
June 26, 1952 - March 6, 2023
Barry grew up in Cloverdale in a loving home surrounded by family and friends. His childhood memories were filled with large family gatherings and neighbourhood events.
Barry worked for M.J. Cook, Chevron and Stampede Fuels over his long career as a driver. He loved to reminisce about “the old days” of fuel delivery.
Barry is predeceased by his mother Lillian, father Edwin, sister Linda. Also predeceased by his father-in-law Morse, sister-in-law Karen, and extended family Grace, Murray, and Tracey.
He is survived by his wife Eileen, son Trevor (Jenn), daughter Laura (Keeley) and his four grandchildren Marcus, Caelynn, Weston, and Jack. Barry treasured his family and was bursting with love for his grandchildren.
A Celebration of Life will be held on Tuesday, March 14, 2pm-4pm at the Langley Golf & Banquet Centre (21550 44 Ave, Langley). Service at 2pm followed by a tea.
In lieu of flowers, please donate to the Kidney Foundation or BC Children’s Hospital.

Our deepest sympathies to the Day family.
Dear Eileen and family, I am so sorry to learn of Barry's death. He was one of my best friends from elementary school onward and I've thought of him fondly many times over the years since our paths diverged. I got to chat with him once later on when I was home from university and he happened to come by to fill my parents' oil tank; he was ever the nicest guy. My sincere condolences.
Eileen and Laura, I wish I was there to give you both a big hug. I only met Barry a couple of times but felt I knew him from the many funny stories you shared over the years. I know he was a special man and there is a big hole in your family that can never be filled. Keep sharing those stories. He will be forever in our hearts. Sending love
We were so sorry to hear of Barry's passing, gone too soon. Sending our thoughts and prayer to you all.
So very sorry to hear of Barry’s passing. So glad I saw Barry and Eileen last October. Barry was such a nice guy
So many memories of good times together over the years. Barry was always upbeat and always had a new goal in mind. Such a great entertainer! We will miss him so much. Sending hugs and prayers to all the family.
