Drew Barnickle Obituary
Drew Barnickle, a man of honor and joy, passed away on September 15, 2024, leaving behind a legacy of love for his country, family, and the simple pleasures of life. Drew's passion for playing guitar filled many rooms with melody, and his stories of service to his country captivated the hearts of all who listened. He was a patriot through and through, taking immense pride in his contributions and experiences.
Drew is survived by Dean and Greg Barnickle of Greenville, SC.
An avid outdoorsman, Drew found peace and contentment on the water, boating and fishing under the open sky. These moments, often shared with friends and family, were among his most cherished. His two loyal dogs were his constant companions, receiving his unwavering care and affection.
Drew's warm spirit and engaging conversations will be deeply missed by all who knew him. His memory will continue to resonate, much like the strings of his beloved guitar, in the hearts of those he touched.
