Carl Montan Barry Sr., affectionately known as "Monz," departed from this life on March 11, 2026, in his native city of Wichita, Kansas, just shy of his 66th birthday. Born on March 17, 1960, to his beloved mother, Effie Bryant, and his late father, Monz's life was a testament to the love and perseverance that marked his character.

His life was filled with love for his family, especially his five children: Carl Barry Jr., Cartez, Carlaitha, Marquez, and Carllertha. As a father, he was a pillar of strength and guidance, instilling in his children the values of hard work and integrity that he held dear. His love for his family extended to his eleven grandchildren and one great-grandchild.

The family invites those who knew and loved Monz to join them in celebrating his life. A funeral service will be held on Thursday, March 26, 2026, at 11:00 AM at the Tabernacle Bible Church. He will be laid to rest at the White Chapel cemetery, where his spirit will continue to watch over those he loved.

Monz's family would like to express their heartfelt gratitude for the outpouring of love and support they have received during this difficult time. They remember him with the words, "We will miss you, Monz," a sentiment echoed by everyone whose life was touched by this remarkable man. As we bid him farewell, we carry forward his legacy of love, resilience, and community spirit.
