    We are heartbroken for the family. Barney was a kind man. I will never forget Barney picking Justin up on a Sunday night at New Hope and holding him. He was so sweet to Jus. We love you, Janie, and are praying for you and the kids.

    Mr Barney was a great man at Divide Methodist Protestant Church. He messed with me all the time when I would come to Wednesday night church. We picked at each other a lot also. He would always ask how my day was and what I’ve been up too. You will be missed brother Barney. We are gonna miss you and we will love you till the end of time. I love you Mr Barney and I will miss you most. Love, Kalynn Tolbird
