Flags will fly at half-staff on both the Oklahoma and Oklahoma State campuses Friday to honor longtime Oklahoma City sportscaster Bob Barry Jr., who was killed Saturday in an automobile accident.

OU Public Affairs announced the move via Twitter Thursday afternoon.

“He and his father, longtime OU and OSU sportscaster Bob Barry Sr., who died in 2011, were respected sportscasters who brought state fans enjoyment and pride through their enthusiasm, professionalism and winning personalities,” another OU Public Affairs tweet read.

Public services will be held Friday at 11 a.m. at Crossings Community Church in Oklahoma City, Barry’s family said.
