CHESTER – Barent (Barry) W. Pease, Jr., 64, passed away on December 12, 2022. He was born March 22, 1958, at Noble Hospital in Westfield, and grew up in Chester, MA. Barry was a graduate of Gateway Regional School in Huntington and not too long after graduation moved to Wyoming for ten years, where he worked on the oil pipelines. He then moved back to Chester and worked at Texon, Lafond Construction, and Aqua Pump before retiring. He enjoyed his winters in Florida with family and friends and looked forward to the Indian Motorcycle Rally in Chester every year. Barry loved fishing, hunting, playing pool and cards. He was always up for a good time, and everyone knew if Barry was around by his distinctive laugh. He was the oldest son of the late Barent (Barney) W. Pease, Sr. (2007) and Geraldine (Gerry) M. Pease (2018).
Barry will be deeply missed by his family, brothers Terry and Kelly Pease and his wife Serena Pease, and his sister Shelley and her husband Lee King. He also leaves behind two nieces and five nephews, four great-nieces and a great-nephew, along with many aunts and uncles, and cousins.
The family is planning a celebration of life gathering at the Chester Homestead this summer. Firtionadams.com
