Lawrence Barefoot Obituary
Larry spent many years on the road as a truck driver and after retiring he became a farrier due to his love of horses. Larry was a very spiritual man who believed deeply in God. Larry was a pistol carrying spitfire; who could always make you laugh and was always there for you when you needed him. He was very dependable and was always there for you no matter when you needed him. Larry loved and was loved and will be dearly missed.
Larry is predeceased by his wife, Russel Barefoot and his daughter, Stacey Schluman who was married to Michael Schulman of Tomball.
Larry is survived by his daughters, Luanne Woodley, Susan Brinkle, Dawn Barefoot, Judy Barefoot and Tammy Jessi; his sons, Michael Barefoot, John Barefoot, Tom Barefoot and Gene Johnson and daughter in law, Kate Johnson; his grandchildren John Johnson, Mallory Wilding, Cody Barefoot and Josh Humphrey and great grandchildren Ranses, Rese and Bow.
There will be a graveside service at 11:00 A.M., Thursday, July 9, 2020 at Fairview Whitehall Cemetery, Navasota, Texas. Arrangements have been entrusted to Claire Brothers Funeral Home, 7901 Hillcroft Street, Houston, Texas 77081.

Larry and Tess. Miss both of you like crazy. My heart is heavy & I look forward to the day we meet again. The world is a much duller place without you in it. Rest in peace my beloved friends. It was a beautiful day they laid you to rest under that huge oak up on the hill. Love you today Larry.

Larry I will always see your sheepish grin and hear your giggle, thinking of you. Your heart, honesty and smile will always be remembered. I am proud you were my friend.
You will always be apart of my life.
Fly High!

I know this man I called him dad
Who is dear to my heart.
Suddenly one day
It was torn all apart.
This man taught me everything
That I needed to know,
But I never really listened
Until he had to go.
He gave me love
And touched my life.
It's all over now;
He no longer has to fight.
He tried to teach me
Right from wrong.
The day he left
I wasn't that strong.
He is gone now,
It is hard to believe.
This man is my dad
Whom I will never see.
But I will see him again,
This I know.
The day will come
When it's time for me to go.
So, I'll hold him dear
And close to my heart
'Cause the day we meet
I know we'll never be torn apart
