Handle id #8069 : Derbyshire Ram
I'm sorry to have to tell you all that Derbyshire Ram (Barry), former member of groups like Dominators, Illusion and Avantgarde passed away peacefully at his home early on Sunday morning, 27th of May.
He has been so brave and fought cancer with every bit of effort he could find for four years. Right up until the Saturday evening prior was he sitting in his chair with all his children around him.
Rest in peace old friend. |

I actually hadn't heard about him until his name was mentioned in the "Who is the oldest scener" thread.
But I have the utmost respect for a man with an almost twenty year scene career and who was an active scener well into his sixties. A true oldtimer.

I remember my brother and I playing many games in our very early 64 days cracked by him. Years later it was nice to learn that he was such a top bloke.
RIP Barry, thanks for the games and the memories. |

Barry, old friend, you leave behind you a loving family and thousands of sceners, who also became your family. We will never forget you. I haven't spoken with you in many years, and yet you just had a way about you that made you one of the most, if not the most, likeable, loved and respected of all the thousands of us who became part of this scene.
Here's to you, Barry. A friend to all of us! |

So many years have passed since I was in contact with Barry and yet it seems like only last week.
I hope my sadness will pass by remembering the impact he made to the lives of so many of us, so that I can treasure that memory for ever. Thank you Barry for being one of the best examples of what our scene had to offer!
Rest in peace.

Yet another true legend has left us! I´m very very sorry to hear about this... I was in contact with Barry in the years 1991-1994. He was a big part of my active c64scene days. Last time I was in contact with him was in November 2001, where he sent me a greeting at the Remember site.
Barry, I´ll never forget your kindness, long letters, support etc.. Seems what they say is true - good men die first...
The scene will never forget you and will always try to keep the memories of you alive.
May you rest in peace.
