Berry Jr. of South Carolina;  sisters Rachel Howes (Kevin) of WVC, Regan Barnes (Ted) of WVC, Ranell Williamson (Brian) of Sherwood, Oregon and brother Ren Berry (Shelley) of Indianapolis, IN.; 17 nieces and nephews and many aunts, uncles and cousins.  Preceded in death by his beloved grandparents, Richard G.
