What else could I say about uncle Joe that everyone doesn't already know. "You our LOVED,"You will be MISSED,"You will be thought of DAILY and we all will NEVER forget "You. We all have our memories and will think of them often. I too have lots of great of memories, not only of Joe but of Mary also! My memories of hunting & of fishing with Joe, Dave & Jeff Barnette will last a life time. Good Times for sure! Like Jeff said, I too will miss Joe's phone calls, they were just to B.S about anything & everything most of the time, but he would always ask how is Ellen & the kids doing. There is one phone call that came every year like clock work. After deer gun season the phone would ring, I'd say hello, the first thing Joe would say was..( Tell me a lie Bill Stalnaker ) then he would laugh, then we both would start to lie about the big one that got away! This has been going on for 35 year now! Last year in DEC: I did Not get that call from Joe, he was sick. I Miss it already!
Pam, Deanna & Joe.
My deepest sympathy go's out to "You three and to the entire Barnette family & to all our friends and family that knew Joe. I also want "You three to know that your Dad has told me more than once... how proud he was of all three of "You for taking such good care of him. He also told me many times how proud Mary would have been of you girls for doing such a GREAT job of it. Have to tell this also, Joe said..them girls want let me do anything at all. But "You three surely must know he LOVED it.
Not only were Joe & Mary my auntie & uncle by marriage, they both were my friends.. and I loved them both very much! God be with the three of "You and your family always!
Sincerely
Gary W Busler
