Yesterday

Mr. Barnett was a prominent figure of my youth as I grew up just across the street. I remember every morning going to school, he would be on his morning jog around the neighborhood. Another core memory was always knowing every year that the ram ramble would come around. I could always count on him for a donation to help me win whatever prize it was that year! I will never forget Mr.Barnett, our community has truly lost a pillar and great man! Prayers and love to the family!
