Vale Neville Barry

Nev passed away on 29th May 2013 aged 79 years. A former Brother's Rugby League player in First Grade and Reserve Grade, he was a fine half-back brilliant in attack and solid in defence.
Neville was educated at Marist Brothers Ashgrove, a school that has produced many fine footballers. He also played for Wests Rugby First Grade soon after leaving school. He was a very good cricketer and a qualified life saver with the North Burleigh Life Saving Club.

A noted raconteur, Nev was was well known and appreciated by the people of Ashgrove as evidenced by a packed St. Finbarr's Catholic Church of over 500 people from all different walks of life.

Nev was pre-deceased by his wife Fae and son Michael. Our sympathies are with his daughters Louise and Shannon and son Daniel and grandchildren.
