Nov 21, 1935 – May 10, 2018
Barbara Jean Leftwich Barnett left her earthly home to be with her husband George Robert Barnett Jr. and her Heavenly Father on May 10, 2018.
Barbara was born November 21, 1935 in Bedford, VA to William Leftwich and Ida Jane Leftwich Parker (Hayden). She has two brothers William “Junior” Leftwich and Edward Eugene Leftwich Sr.
She was preceded in death by her husband, parents and brothers.
Left to cherish her memory are; Six children Betty (Greg) Turner of Roanoke, VA, Barbara Gail Barnett of Goldsboro, NC, Carl (Sharon) Barnett of Roanoke, VA, Robin (Calvin Scott) Barnett of Roanoke, VA, Robert Dennis (Angela) Barnett of Hopkins, SC and Joyce Jeffrey of Roanoke, VA, 14 grandchildren Carl “CJ” Barnett, Tameka (Elmon) Welch, Tracey Barnett, Alicia Barnett, Dallas Barnett, Jamie Taylor, Terrance West, Torrence (Sandra) West, Tameka Barczak, Jessica Jeffrey, Ashley (Simon) Squires, Broderick Jeffrey, Cedric Jeffrey and Fene Turner, her nephew Edward Eugene (Rita) Leftwich Jr, 26 great-grandchildren, four great-great-grandchildren, and a host of other relatives and friends.
Also, left to cherish her memory is the staff and patients at Friendship Manor. Each of them had become a part of Barbara’s family.
Those who spent any time with her knew of her strong work ethic and love for her family. She wasn’t the mushy and sappy type however, she showed love through food; whether it was in the school cafeteria or her very own kitchen. The fresh smell of pound cake, fresh apple cake, applesauce cake, peach cobbler, biscuits, pancakes, etc. will long fill our memories. We all love her deeply and she will forever live within our hearts.
A funeral service will be held 12:00 Noon, Wednesday, May 16, 2018 at Serenity Funeral Home and Cremation Service
