It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Howard S. Barr, Jr., lovingly known as Sonny, age 62, of Stratford, NJ, on February 22, 2025. Sonny was born in Camden, NJ, to Howard S. Barr, Sr. and Virginia F. Barr (nee Redmond).
A dedicated construction worker for many years, Sonny's passion extended beyond his profession. He was a proud Harley Davidson enthusiast, and his recent membership in the Legion Riders was one of his greatest joys. Sonny was especially proud of his work on a motorcycle he was building to be auctioned, with the proceeds benefiting "Sonny's Last Ride," a charity to support those battling cancer in his memory.
Sonny’s presence and generosity will be deeply missed by all who knew him.
He is survived by his son, Kyle Barr; mother, Virginia “Ginger” Barr; granddaughter, Kali; sister, Virginia “Ginny” Wooster; niece, Candyce Tomasso (Dan); nephew, Lee Wooster (Jaclyn); and great niece and nephews, Chase, Ashlyn, Liam and Emma. Also surviving is Sonny’s sister-in-law, Jacqueline Barr and his many cousins, especially Glenn and Vinnie Mullary who were “his brothers from another mother”. He is predeceased by his father, Howard S. Barr, Sr. and brother, Joseph Barr.
