I
remember Gary from High School. I grew up in
Newmarket ... just down the street from Gary. My
thoughts and prayers are with Gary's family and
friends. He will be missed.
April 22, 2010
Gary
lived two blocks over from me in Newmarket Village,
attended elementary and high school together, and if
my memory serves me right, he was called "Butch".
Way too young Gary, way too young. May you rest in
peace and your family know peace.
Jay Styles, '68 April 22, 2010 It is with great sadness to hear of Gary's passing. He was a ton of fun, smiling all the time, and enjoying life. He was loved by many. My deepest sympathy to his family. April 23, 2010
Gary,
God's peace be with you. I, too, grew up in the
Newmarket neighborhood and Mom is still there( 72nd
Street). We attended the same schools. My sincere
sympathy to your family. Rest in peace.
April 23, 2010
Gary from
your Newport News High School alumni our thoughts
and sympathy are with your family. You've been taken
far to soon, and will be missed. Rest in peace.
Ginny Hollomon Hawks Class of '69 NNHS April 26, 2010 May God be with Gary and his family in this time of sorrow. He was a great guy and a friend to me. He will be missed. Godspeed, Gary Wayne Barnes.

There's a sweet sweet spirit in
this place
And I know that it's the spirit of the Lord
There are sweet expressions on each face
And I know they feel the presence of the Lord
Sweet Holy Spirit
Sweet heavenly dove
Stay right here with us
Filling us with your love
And for these blessings
We lift our hearts in praise (hearts in praise)
Without a doubt we'll know that we have been revived
When we shall leave this place
