To the family of Rev. Mickey Barnes,
I extend my deepest sympathy to everyone on the lost of Rev.Barnes. I worked with Mr.Barnes for eight years while he was employed at Bank of America/Hewitt Associates. I just found out yesterday of his passing, we all know Rev. Barnes is in a better place. Mickey will be missed.

Mrs. Doris, Words cannot express the sympathy that we have for you during these days of bereavement for you. Though I only spoke to Bro. Mickey a few times, his Godly principles and character left a HUGE mark on my life. If there's ever been a man to live upon this earth that followed Jesus' perfect example of what a man should be, it was Mickey. I know of not one thing within his life that would bring any reproach on Jesus Christ whatsoever. Heaven't Sounding Sweeter all the Time.
