I first met Barney shortly after my husband, Tom, and I were married in the fall of 1961. We visited my dad's wonderful family in southern Louisiana in early November. While visiting my Aunt Edith and Uncle Alton, their daughter, Lezette, (who was just over a year younger than me) had a planned date with Barney that night. Tom and I ended up going on a double date with them and had a wonderful evening. Barney was a delightful person and very handsome. We were happy that he would soon be part of our wonderful family in Louisiana. We had many wonderful visits with them through the years. Heaven has gained a wonderful soul who has joined his wife, other family members and my Tom there! Claudia Bush, Liberty, Missouri.
