To the family, friends, and officers that knew Trooper Barry, my thoughts and prayers are with you as you face the trying times ahead of you. Please know your not alone.
Then the rainstorm came, over me
And I felt my spirit break
I had lost all of my, belief you see
And realized my mistake
But time through a prayer, to me
And all around me became still
I need love, love's divine
Please forgive me now I see that I've been blind
Give me love, love is what I need to help me know my name
Through the rainstorm came sanctuary
And I felt my spirit fly
I had found all of my reality
I realize what it takes
'Cause I need love, love's divine
Please forgive me now I see that I've been blind
Give me love, love is what I need to help me know my name
Oh I, don't bet (don't bend), don't break (don't break)
Show me how to live and promise me you won't forsake
'Cause love can help me know my name
Well I try to say there's nothing wrong
But inside I felt me lying all along
But the message here was plain to see
Believe me
'Cause I need love, love's divine
Please forgive me now I see that I've been blind
Give me love, love is what I need to help me know my name
Oh I, don't bet (don't bend), don't break (don't break)
Show me how to live and promise me you won't forsake
'Cause love can help me know my name
Love can help me know my name

Words can't express the heart wrenching sorrow I feel for the Barry family and Massachusetts State Police Department. Being number 7 in my family I understand the love your family must have shared on a daily basis. Please accept our condolences and the many, many prayers that will be offered up on Trooper P.F. Barry's behalf. Reflect often on the great times you had with Trooper Barry. Your watch is over and your brothers in blue have it from here Trooper Barry. May GOD send a peace and comfort to everyone affected by this hugh loss you have suffered. For it's how you lived that makes you a hero....not how you died. May God Protect and Bless Our Law Enforcement Officers.
We do not know how long we have
Until time for us has passed.
So let us love and live as if THIS day
Is going to be our last. ~~unknown~~
