Paul David Barkhurst

Met Paul at Minot Air Force Base when we reported for missile crew duty. We fought winter snows, endured alert schedules, and class room work. His sense of humor made it easier to put up with those long hours. He was a great friend.

I am so thankful that I got to reconnect with my great uncle in 2019! I enjoyed our conversations and especially stories of my great Aunt Betty and how they met, and stories of my mawmaw Martha, Betty’s sister. I will definitely miss him and his witty humor. Rest in peace uncle PD. Tell my mom, mawmaw and Aunt Betty I said hi and I miss them. Until we meet again on the streets of gold watch over your family from above.

I am so sorry. You all are in my thoughts. Rob Handy. Oregon

Marti, we loved your Dad, as we got to be with him on several occasions over the past 20 years, at times like the Eagle Scout celebrations. He was always fun and loved being with his family. You will all miss him, but we know you'll keep his memory alive with wonderful stories and photos of trips and events. May the Lord bring you all comfort and strength. With love, Alex and Char

Marti, our deepest condolences to you and your family. I never had the pleasure of meeting your dad, but I always enjoyed seeing your posts of him loving life, traveling and doing so many things with you and your family.

Marti, we want to extend our deepest sympathy to all the family. Our thoughts and prayers are with you. Dale & Cindy Burke and family.
