There are truly no words adequate enough to describe my experience with Tim and Joan Harrington and staff at Barr Funeral Home over this past week in dealing with my family and myself during this horrible, horrible time. My beloved son, Quinn died last Wednesday at the age of 30. From the moment I called Barr and spoke with Tim, I knew I had absolutely nothing to worry about in making my son's final arrangements. My boy died in Minnesota. Tim, without a second thought, drove all day to go collect my boy and bring him back to Chicago. Tim, with great care and compassion took care of every detail. He guided my family and myself with such care. During the wake and funeral mass, Tim stood vigil with us, keeping his eye on all goings on, quitely in the background, ensuring all were talking care of and that events went smoothly. We are beyond grateful for Tim, Joan and the entire Barr Funeral Home family. Thank you so very much Tim and Joan for standing by us and making the saddest moment of our lives one we bare. Your handling the details and arraignments allowed us to completely focus on celebrating the life if our dear Quinnie and begin the grieving process. � Megan, Steve and family
