I am deeply saddened on hearing this news. I always loved hearing the stories of my family in Cleveland. I had the extreme pleasure of meeting his sister Marge in 1986. My Family is from Kearny, NJ. and my father Robert, who passed in Oct 2013, had received Family Tree information that I treasure to this day. I seems like I have missed much since the passing of so many of my family. Love and Prayers to all of you. My name is Robert Anderson Barclay 5th.

I am very sorry to learn of Bob’s passing. I worked with Bob for 15 years on many projects at JCU. He was the best at his craft. Will miss his gentile approach to issues and smile. May he Rest In Peace.
Our deepest condolences to Joyce & Family....our paths crossed in Ellicottville, NY. where the American Barclay’s met the Canadian Barclay’s (no relations) however, always joked could have been cousins somewhere in the distant past. Over the years a friendship developed with annual vacations became a routine there were always plenty of adventures, laughs and stories to be told. Bob was fascinated and proud of his Scottish Heritage and Bob & Jack shared a special bond. I must say both gentlemen looked fabulous in their kilts. We are going to miss our dear friend Bob, may special memories of Bob bring comfort to all. May he Rest In Peace, you are in God hands. Oxox
Dear Joyce,
I have read the obituary and would like to share something with you...My dad, Harry Rothchild, was a Seabee in World War II! I did not know that Bob was in the Seabees. I feel that we missed an opportunity to bond over this similarity. You and I will have to made up for the sharing I missed with Bob. (Don’t forget to put Deanna and I on the list of those to let us know when the memorial service is in 2020.
Love you,
Myrna
