Bret Barnes with Curtis Barnes
I write this post with an extremely heavy heart…
Our father recently had an accident where he fractured multiple vertebrae. He underwent neurosurgery and somehow made it through the 10 hour surgery. This is the second surgery of this kind he had to undergo in the last few years. If anyone knows our dad they know how much pain he has overcome through his life and he always laughs and jokes his way through it all. He endured over a decade of hemodialysis where he never complained once. He silently battled through it all displaying his ridiculous sense of humor every step of the way.
On Tuesday, November 18th our father, William Barnes, unfortunately passed away. He is no longer hurting and no longer having to fight each and every day. We love you dad! We miss you so incredibly much but we have peace knowing you are with the lord and resting peacefully.Love like Bill. No matter the pain and struggles in your life navigate it all with a smile and a sense of humor that makes those around you laugh (no matter how ridiculous the dad jokes are). Never let those question the love you have for them, always express it and show it just as he did.For those interested we will post dates for his services which will be held after the holidays. If anyone has any photos of Bill or with Bill they want added to a slide show at his celebration of life please post them in the comments section!
We appreciate all the love and support we have already recieved. THANK YOU ALL!!
Funeral, obituary and memorial arrangements will be announced soon.
