I never met a man more worthy of the adjective 'class' than Barry Twomlow. Like one of the many thousands of aspiring darts players around the world that Barry influenced, I was immediately impressed with his dignity and poise when I was fortunate enough to first meet him. As a frequent traveller myself, I am completely in awe of his record of travel. He spent decades circling the globe to promote Unicorn and to further the sport into the far corners of the globe. His true contribution to the growth of darts may never be fully recognized. It was an honour to share a board with Barry Twomlow.

I am shocked and saddened to hear that Barry passed away. I still remember the time he visited Japan when I took him to many dart bars. He is a truly respectable person and a great ambassador of darts who contributed a lot to the world of darts tremendously. Anyone who met him respected him and liked him. I don't really think there was and will be any one like him; he was the one and only.

The loss is too great for the world of darts. We all miss Barry.

I first met Barry in 1974 when I was asked by Unicorn to help develop and stage their Unicorn World Pairs Tournament. Although not a darts fan to start with, I soon became one as a result of Barry's infectious enthusiasm for the sport. The world of darts is poorer for his passing but much richer as a result of his life and his massive contribution to the growth of the sport worldwide. I shall miss his wise advice, normally offered over a pint or three, his kindness and his friendship. My favourite Barry story? A TV film crew came over from China about 10 years ago to do stories on British sport. They put Barry in front of a camera and said 'talk about darts' - and of course they ran out of film. A month or so later a video came over from China with Barry sitting there, talking about darts, over-dubbed in Chinese. It was very funny. But when the first Chinese Open happens, which it surely will one day, the sport will yet again be grateful to Barry, as it has been so often in the past.

Very sorry to hear of Barry’s passing. Please convey our sympathies from darts fans and those who have met Barry over the years throughout Australia.

I got word thru Sandy Green that Barry has passed away. He was a good friend of mine here in the USA. To be on the Royal Hawaiian darting team you needed a sponsor, and he chose me. We'd talk endlessly about nothing, share drinks, laughs, he was truly a good friend to me. Unfortunately when I married in 1991 we lost contact. I will miss him. I would hope you post something on your website about him. The world has truly lost the nicest man I've ever met with the greatest laugh on earth :)

It is a sad day with the passing of Barry. He really was the world ambassador of darts. I met him in Denver, CO in 1974 after he put on an exhibition at a local sporting goods store, he was fantastic with people and his darts skills were the best we had ever seen. He got me in the Darts business first with Unicorn of course and helped me with Trulon and Retriever and Frank Johnson's, it has been a great run and I have never been able to thank him enough and now he is gone. So Sad.

Thanks for giving us who cared about Barry a platform to say good-bye.
