Obituary of Barry Edward Reid

Barry Edward Reid of Williamsburg, NB, sadly passed away on March 11, 2025, at Dr. Everett Chalmers Regional Hospital. He was the beloved husband of Heather Dawn (Bavis) Reid. Born on October 3, 1958, in Stanley, NB, he was the cherished son of the late Velma (Hossack) and Stanley Reid.

Barry leaves behind his children, Lisa Pegg (Brad), Christopher Reid (Shawnalynn), Michael Reid (Natasha). He was a loving grandfather to Martha, Tanner, and Alec. Barry also leaves behind brother, Danny Reid (Cheryl); his loyal dog, Buffy; his father-in-law, Murray Bavis (Kathy); brother-in-law, Kevin Bavis; nieces, Lindsay, Krista, and Stacey, and his nephew Jamie. He was predeceased by his brother, Geoff Reid.

Barry enjoyed a career at the Napadogan Veneer Plant. He treasured his Saturdays spent playing Cribbage and working at Hillside Convenience, where his interactions with customers brought him joy. His grandkids held a special place in his heart, as did his adventures on side-by-side rides, and working on his tractor.
