Dr. John C. Barker

I went to grade school with John at Our Lady of Lourdes. He was a good friend. My condolences to his family.

I had the pleasure of working with John Barker once a week for 14 years and he was such a compassionate doctor. He will truly be missed.
Heaven has gained another Angel!

I have met many people in my life. Many special people. Doc left a mark. He was very special. He was my doctor and soon Marcia and he became friends. If you knew him, you know what I mean by special. He knew his stuff, as any MD should, but he had a gift. Another level. He knew a lot about everything. There was an inner light that showed in everything he did. I will miss my friend. A friend I never knew was missing until I met him. That hole will never be filled. God Bless you John, and give...

A caring and compassionate physician and friend. I will greatly miss seeing and talking to John in the future. He was the epitome of what a family physician should be.

The world has lost a wonderful, kind and extremely knowledgeable physician. He treated myself and my family for almost 40 years. He can never be replaced. May he now rest in peace. Free from the pain and suffering he went through. My prayers are with his family and friends at this difficult time.

I am so sorry to his family for this terrible loss & all of his other friends/patients too! Dr. Barker was a one of a king Doctor, who i (we) will never be able to replace! They just don't make his kind anymore.
He is with the love of his life again (Marcia) who he has missed terribly! I thank him for all the excellent care he gave me for over a decade +. You will never be forgotten Dr. Barker & RIP *dear, sweet, smart, caring man & very loving father as well. May god wrap his arms around...

Dear Felix and Barker family,

I remember my classmate John Barker as kind, humble, friendly, honest and so bright. I will not forget his smile or his humor, his humility or his gentleness. We will have our 50th high school class reunion in 2019 and we will toast to his memory. At this time I simply want to offer my condolences and express my gratefulness for his life and friendship.

John, you were greatly loved and appreciated. You were always willing to listen and you cared about the person and not just the ailment. We were your patients for 41 years and your friends for just as long. We loved you and Marcia and all you stood for. It was always good to hear about your plans and what was going on in your life. We loved listening to the stories you told. I know the angels are singing because you've come home. Earth was a much better place, especially the east side of...

Dr. John you will be greatly missed. You were an amazing friend and physician. RIP John Barker. God bless your girls, grandkids and other family members. Mike and Gail Shackelford.
