Michael Jor-El Barnes

My sister, Brittany, and I both went to school with Mike. We also worked with him at Bill Knapp's years ago. He was always smiling, and was one of the nicest guys I have ever had the pleasure of meeting. I am very sorry for your loss, he will be greatly missed.

"Mikey B", There is so much I can say about you right now and if you were here you would agree because you know how much I love to talk and you know how I loved sending you texts everyday and calling you at your store. We all miss you so very much and you brought so many smiles and so much laughter into our lives. All your buddies at Lady Foot Locker #6576(your home store that you started at in Toledo) and Lady Foot Locker #6378 (the store in Elyria, Ohio that you took when you got promoted...

Mike, you were an awesome person, and it was always a pleasure being in your section in band. Our sectionals were always so fun, because you were there. You are greatly missed. God bless.

I met Mike a few summers ago and became friends with him. He was a great guy and always made me laugh. Im sorry for your loss and am going to miss him.
Sincerely,
Katherine Stoll

Mike was a remarkable person with an amazing personality. Mike had the ability to light up any room with his magnificent smile and his great sense of humor. He was taken away from us way too early but he is in a better place now. As long as we have the memories he will never really leave us. Rest In Peace Mike, we will miss you.

My condolences go out to you and your family at this difficult time.

It's hard to believe that he's gone, but I can't think about him without smiling. That's the kind of guy he was, and we'll always remember him as such.
Catch ya later, Corporal Barnes.

My older children, Dickey and Katie, both knew and "hung out" with Mike. They have many fun memories and Mike was a "regular" at our home in Sylvania before we moved to Florida last year.

There is nothing worse than losing a child. From all of our family to yours, our heartfelt sadness and condolences.
