Barry Loren Watson, age 57, of Rogersville, passed away Tuesday, September 27, 2022, in his home.

Born February 16, 1965, in Waynesburg, the son of the late James L. and Marie (Stockdale) Watson of

Holbrook.

Barry was a Greene County resident his whole life. He graduated from West Greene High School in 1983.

Barry attended the Rogersville United Methodist Church and the First United Methodist Church when he

resided in Waynesburg. He had a strong faith in God and recently invited a neighborhood child to attend

church with him. He started working at age 16 at the Waynesburg Shop-n-Save to save money to buy

his first love, a Chevrolet Camaro that he painted candy apple red. He went on to work as a Project

Manager at Chapman Corporation for over 20 years and Mark West and Matrix for a combined six years.

He also worked as a Sales Specialist for Lowes in Uniontown. He enjoyed taking his daughter and her

friends shopping and to the movies, shooting guns with his son, restoring his Chevy pickup truck and

hanging out with his favorite dog Bubby. He loved spending time with his mother while she was alive.

He also loved singing, including singing with his best friend’s band while in high school. His voice could

be heard for miles as he mowed the lawn, made dinner for his children’s friends or while doing a menial

task. His voice will be greatly missed.
