Timber Valley is saddened by the passing of Barbara (BJ) Barry of Lot 23 on October 19, 2025.
BJ was born July 3, 1939. She and Larry Barry were married May 11, 1957. They were married for 68 years. They came into Timber Valley in 2006. They had a lot until 2018 when they built a home near Oak Hills Golf Course in Sutherlin, Oregon. They got on the Active Wait List again in 2018 and again became lease holders in 2022. Although they had a lot here they continued to live in their home near the golf course. They were very involved in the gaming in the clubhouse. BJ was a caring, cheerful person who many remember fondly.
BJ is survived by her husband Larry, a daughter, Tamara Remlinger of Eugene, Oregon and son, Brett Barry of Maryland. Larry says BJ was a loving and kind woman of faith who was never angry. She is greatly missed. Larry will continue to live in their home near the golf course.
The writing group that normally meets at 9:30 AM on Saturday is changing to 10:00 AM in the Card Room.
Let me introduce Robert Bernal. Robert creates temporary rock sculptures in natural settings like the North Umpqua or wherever there are rocks available like Timber Valley SKP park.
The act of balancing can create a state of harmony and well being. As you practice balancing rocks it will lead to a state of mental clarity, emotional stability and overall well-being.
