Alice Lynn Barnett

1944 - 2025

Alice Lynn Barnett, 81, passed away peacefully on September 17, 2025, at Scripps Memorial Hospital in Encinitas, California, surrounded by her loving family. She had been under the compassionate care of hospice following a brief illness.

Alice was born in South Bend, Indiana, to Betty Lou (Myers) and Arthur Reasor. In 1956, at the age of 12, her family relocated to California. She later attended 4Cs Business College in Fresno, California.

In 1960, Alice married Jerry James Hawkins, who sadly passed away in 1961. In 1966, she married her beloved husband, James C. Barnett. Together, they built a home in San Jose, California, where Alice worked at Lockheed Missiles and Space Company and later with Milpitas Unified School District while raising their three children.

In 1991, Alice and Jim fulfilled their dream of retiring to the beautiful Pacific Northwest, settling in Sequim, Washington. Alice found joy and purpose volunteering for Hospice of Clallam County and the American Heart Association. Thirteen years after Jim's passing, she moved to Rancho Santa Fe, California, in 2022 to be closer to her grandson Daniel and her children.

Alice, endeared by the nickname "GG", loved her family deeply and cherished every moment with them. She enjoyed traveling, crafting, playing bingo, and visiting with friends. Known for her warm heart, infectious humor, and the best jokes, she was loved by all who knew her and will be dearly missed.

Alice is survived by her daughter and son-in-law, Jeri and Willie Guerrero of Hanford, CA; her son, Kevin Barnett of Hanford, CA; five grandchildren: Michael Barnett (Geneseo, IL), Daniel Price (Rancho Santa Fe, CA), Monique Patterson (Hanford, CA), Erica Anderson (Annawan, IL), and Melissa Guerrero (Hanford, CA); and nine great-grandchildren: Lincoln, Landon, and Lane Barnett; Cash and Sawyer Anderson; Katalaya Muldrow; Amelia and Alice Price; and Luna Barnett. She is also survived by her brother, Gary Reasor of Brush, CO, and her four loving nieces: Phyllis, Terrie, Jaime, and Claudia.

She was preceded in death by her parents, Arthur and Betty Lou Reasor; her husband, James Clifford Barnett Sr.; her son, James Clifford Barnett Jr.; and her aunt, Betty Jane (Myers) Golf.

In loving memory of my very good friend for the past 59 years, my heartfelt condolences go out to Alice's beautiful and caring daughter, Jeri, who was very close to her Mother and to her entire family, and my deepest sympathy to all of the other members of Alice's family. Alice's life long friendship was always appreciated; she was truly a friend in good times and in bad, and she always had something funny to say that made your day a little brighter. Alice was in so many ways 'My Hero' and I am going to miss her every single day forever. God's blessings to all her family.
