I'm sorry for Barry's passing. My condolences to the family. I'll never forget the Cowsills. I had a crush on both Barry and John, then we all grew up.

I am a long time fan of the Cowsills. Unfortunately, I never got to see a concert or meet any of them; definitely my loss. I was so sorry to hear about Barry's passing. I am sure that family, friends, and fans will never forget him. I can only offer my prayers; hoping that God will give the family, friends, and fans peace about Barry's death. Take care; God bless the Cowsills. Karla

I share in the families sorrow of the loss of Barry. I too went through hurricane Katrina and lost my brother as well. Almost 7 months to the day I lost my sister. And then I think back a long time ago to the day I wrote a letter asking for a date with Barry for my sisters 16th birthday. Well needless to say the whole thing was set up for my sister and Barry to go out to dinner and stuff but Barry got sick so we got to go backstage and meet the whole family instead. I still have those pictures from the 1970-71-72 San Antonio Texas AutoShow. My sister and brother are now with Barry having a good ole time and I know she is smiling. Anyway my condolences to the family and I miss you all. Love, Sheryl formally from San Antonio, Tx now in Alabama

I am so sorry to hear the Barry is gone. I grew up to his music and the Cowsills. Himself and Bill will be sorely missed.

Barry is loved and remembered always. I think of him on the 2nd and 14th especially, but didn't know how to sign the birthday book - so maybe the administrator will move this for me. Just want his children to know how their Dad's memory is treasured.

I didn't find out till just tonight about Barry. I don't understand why. I am totally shocked and definately sad to hear that. He was the the picture on my wall when I was a young girl.
I didn't get to meet him in life but I hope someday to meet him in heaven.
Sincerly,Alanna

Did not know he was lost to us in Katrina. That is sad but he is with God now and enjoying his reward.

As soon as it gets close to the anniversary of Katrina I feel a sense of anxiety. Although the exact date is unknown, because of that, this feeling lasts a while. It's a sadness, like you've died all over again. 3 years is not a long time, yet it feels like a lifetime. I think knowing NOLA was facing Gustav and the mandatory evacuation made my feelings more intense. The timing of Gustav hitting was eerie.
I miss talking to you, listening to you play, and plainly just miss you. I will never forget you nor the friendship we shared.
Know you were and are and will always be loved.

Has it really been three years? The sense of loss has not eased that much for either Bee or Billy. I can still get a lump in my throat and tears in my eyes. Hearing Bob perform "In My Life" hurts - I have to look away and say a silent prayer that both men are at peace and know how very much that they are loved and missed. Visiting New Orleans in 2007 was both blessing and curse. I feel closer to who Barry was having walked the same streets & visited venues in both Newport and New Orleans.
If this is the way a "fan" feels after 40 years of just the music and only a passing acquaintance with Barry, how must his children, other family and close friends feel?
My heart goes out to all of the Cowsill clan and to all the fans who feel the pain. We are all one in our loss of the talented musicians and wonderful men that were Barry & Billy.

As i watch the news coverage on Hurricane Gustav, I can't help think of Barry. It makes me so sad. I am almost in denial. I know it is real. I am thinking of Barry and all of you. My prayers are with you and I know Barry is up in Heaven and will not let Gustav do what Katrina did. lets all say a prayer and fire it up.
My thoughts and prayers are with you all.
Love and hugs,
Nanci

If there is a rock'n'roll heaven, now they really do have a hell of a band.
Barry, may you rest in peace.
Our thoughts and prayers to the Cowsill Family.

Hey Barry, so sorry to hear of your passing and Bill's passing. You guys were the epitome of wholesome back in the day. I just recently heard you guys on the radio and that's how I ended up here on the Cowsill's website. I'm sorta new to YouTube (yeah, late bloomer here) and watched your family's videos...awesome!! You guys really knew how to sing...all that talent, unlike some of the so-called "talent" of today. Unbelievable that they pass some of this stuff off as music but, oh well, times have changed. I'll look for you guys in Heaven and say "Hi, I'm a fan". Regards, Judy

Barry, I finally got to see the Cowsills in concert- Bob, Paul, Susan and the band were superb, and I'll bet you and Bill and Mom and Dad were tuning in, proud as hell. Growing up, you were my fave Cowsill, as we were the same age with some similarities in appearance- I guess we also shared a penchant for some self-destructive behavior, if some of the obits are to be believed. Middle Brother Syndrome? Who knows- I prefer to believe the stories that said you had found a way out of the darkness and were making a comeback, only to be cruelly taken by that terrible storm. I hope all the tales of peace everlasting are true, for you and those in your family who are with you in the hereafter. Rock on , Brother Man!
