Dear Mr. Barnett you will be greatly missed. We walked the same halls of the same schools from Woodrow to Mabank. I was never in one of your classes but I know a lot that was we would meet & talk in the halls. You were a sweet & caring person thank you for our little talks. We have lost a Great Teacher but he touched many hearts. Thank you, for touching mine.

I am saddened to hear of Joe's passing. When he was a member of MPAC, he was always such a dear man. A gentleman to the end. Our word is a little dimmer but heaven, a good deal brighter. Our love and prayers to Libby and his family.
