May you rest in peace. May your family find happiness in memories of you. My daughter Bella went to school with you at ASU Poly and knows your friends. She is deeply saddened and sends her condolences.
I love the fact that God put u in the path of me and my family! I have known you since you were a little dude who wasn’t afraid to compete with anyone especially older kids. You left this Earth at a time when I know you would have made a difference. God has his own plan. Hope you know how much you are loved and missed . May God bless your family and give them strength and understanding and may the perceptual light of eternity shine upon you
Our prayers to Barry’s family! He was a fine youngman and beloved member of ASU STEM Academy.

I send my deepest condolences to the Kelley Family. May Barry rest in peace. I am so glad God put Barry in my life. I will always remember our pre-game talks and our after game talks. Barry always made sure to send me a a good-luck text right before every single one of my games, and I will never forget that. He had the purest soul and he always managed to make you smile. We both won the MVP award for basketball in 2019 and called each other MVP Buddies❤️ Barry will always be my MVP Buddy, you will never be forgotten

Pathways
As native peoples we hold people who walk our path
We walk through our lives weaving in and out with one another
My daughter walked a path with your son
I would go past her room
‘Who are you texting/chatting with Little?’
‘Barry. He’s an insomniac like me’
‘Don’t stay up too late’
‘We sent each other pictures of the sunsets’
Barry held a special place in my daughter’s path.
She spoke highly of him.
His easy smile.
His athleticism.
His kindness.
We heard these words echoed in the young voices of those who gathered.
Gathering in the interconnectivity of our lives.
Prayers will rise in the smoke of our morning sage.
Know you are in our hearts.
May we meet again on this life path.
