Dear David, Eileen, entire Barnett family and friends of Mrs. Barnett, What a beautifully composed obituary; kudos to the author(s). Mrs. Barnett was my favorite teacher while being a student of NFA´s Class of 1973. When she spoke I listened very carefully to her words of wisdom. She is one of the main reasons I majored in English and studied on the Education track while in college, and when pursuing my MA. I will always remember Mrs. Barnett and am happy our paths crossed all those years ago...

I knew the family when I worked at Holdridges as a child she was always so pleasant and upbeat! I was also a 4-H er and learned so much! I was blessed to have her as a teacher at NFA always smiling and inspiring to be around. My condolences to all her loved ones she was truly blessed as were they

Mrs. Barnett I will always love and cherish you and your memory. If not for you and the GRADS program IDK where I would've been or how I would've ever been and to be a good mother to Deanna. Thank you for all the love and laughter and many years you gave us. And for never judging us being young, teen parents. You can rest peacefully knowing your work here is done. Love you.

RIP Mrs Barnett, thank you so much for just being who you are and for sharing that with me. I am a better person for having you in my corner. My love and heartfelt sympathies go to her family and friends as they struggle through this time of loss. NFA 93-95

Larry, Bob, Val, Molly & Mason along with the whole Barnett family: Please accept our deepest condolences on your loss. I would occasionally run into Mrs. Barnett when she visited next door when Val and the kids were our neighbors. After that at Village Market or Holdridge's. We would always have a pleasant conversation and catch up on those we knew in common especially family. She was always so happy. We hope you find comfort in knowing she had such an extraordinary life.
