Donald Barker

From what I can remember from when I was little, you always loved us (your great grandchildren), always gave me a root beer when mom didn´t want me to have one, I always watched scooby doo in your room, or sat on your lap, and I remember the bees you made, going ice fishing with you with the light up pole you got me, and I remember helping you paint the garage floor. Evie wasn´t able to meet you sadly, but I know she and my other siblings will meet you in heaven one day. Love you. -Joshua

Dad, thanks so much for being you. I love you, and I miss you more than words can say. I look forward to seeing you again someday...save a place for me.

Ruth, I just looked this up to find out more about Don. I am sorry that I couldn't come to his service. He was truly an awesome & special man. You could tell he liked volunteering at the visitor center so much! He was fun to work with. I miss him. He left big shoes to fill. I hope you are doing ok. We'll see him again! love, Barb Roberts

Ruth and Family, We were so sad to read of Don's passing but know he has gone to a better place. So enjoyed working with Don. He was one of the good guys. Still remember the wonderful dinner you served us.

UNCLE SONNY,
That is what I will always remember,
Your bravery and your love
That caring wise and watchful eye
Which now peers at us from above. I will always remember loving when you came to visit, then I became an adult and had the wonderful treasure of being with you again, I will truly miss you, but know that your in God's warm gentle hands, where you feel sunshine and happiness..

To aunt Ruth & Family, I am so sorry for your loss and will be looking foward to cherishing Uncle Sonnys life with you..

Ruth -
Even though we are stateside, we feel the loss of Don greatly. He was such a special man to our family. Words can only express so much. We know he is no longer in pain and celebrating with Jesus. Prayers for you and the family.

Dear Ruth and Family,
We are so sorry for your loss. But how wonderful to know that Don is now sitting at the feet of Jesus!

Don will be missed by everyone who was greeted by his warm handshake and joyful smile at church. What a blessing he was to us!

Tom and Iris Moore

Thank you for always being a kind and generous soul. You were wonderful to talk to.

My kids and I will miss seeing your smiling face at church...thank you for your friendship...until we meet again.

Love, the Tevaseu's

Dear Ruth and family,
Greg and I want to give you our love and prayers. Don was very special to our family and especially little Cheree. He will be greatly missed. We will continue to pray for you. Much love from the Keffers.

Ruth and Family:
I was so saddened by seeing that Don had passed away. But I can rejoice knowing that he really loved the Lord. I will truly miss seeing him every Wednesday night. He was always so kind and thoughtful when he talked with me at church. Your family is in our thoughts and prayers.

Ruth and Family - Love and prayers for the family. Don will be missed by all of us in so many ways. God will give you strength each and every day.

Our thoughts and prayers are sent your way. God bless.

Ruth and Family, May God be with you and grant you peace during this most difficult time. Cousin Tammy

Patty and Family,

I was so sorry to see this today. My prayers go out to your family. Your dad, husband, grandpa, great grandpa was a wonderful guy. He was always up for an adventure (with Patty and all her friends) bingo, Christmas White Elephant parties and any other activity that was going on. I think he enjoyed being the only guy....with all those women! Know that my thoughts are with all of you in this time of sorrow.

Don was indeed a very nice, wonderful man and we at the ARR remember him fondly. He sure loved to talk about his family and grandchildren!

Ruth, Debbie and family,
I was so sad to hear of Don's passing but I know he is having the best time in Heaven and one day we will all be "Home". Your family is dear to our family and we want you to know we are praying for you all. Psalms 46:1

Don was a great guy. We both enjoyed working with him at the ARRC and will miss him. Sincere regrets that we will be unable to travel to his services from our home in Sequim, WA...Raini & Rob Cacy

I know he raised a lovely daughter who I am honored to be able to call "my friend", Patty. My heartfelt condolences to all his family.
Jennifer Sullivan

Ruth and family,
I am so sorry to hear about Don. You are in our thoughts and prayers.

Ruth, Patti, Debbie & family
Praying for you thru this time. Don was an awesome friend. I am sure he is sitting at Jesus feet with his pop next to him.
Love Jim & Denise Hardy

One of the sweetest men I ever knew. I'll miss his warm handshake on Sunday mornings.

We miss his smile a the door every time we go to Church. We also knew him from his working with our kids at the Alaska Railroad. He presented our twin Grandsons with a Bible when they were just toddlers, and said that he was praying for them. He touched our hearts in many ways. God be with you Ruth and family.

God bless you all and I love you all.
LIZ

Ruth and family
Are prayes are with you at this time.
Greg Julie & Frankie Willhoit
