I was proud to know and love both Clarence and Ellen Barnes for the past several years since I met them through Charles Boucher. I'm so glad I got to know them both and was gifted by both their friendship. Spending Christmas 2014 with both Clarence & Ellen and their extended Family, as a guest of Clarence; was a highlight and and served as a difficult preparation for being able to say goodbye to Clarence the following year. The laughter and fellowship is a sweet memory and wonderful photos remain. Soon, too soon, it has come Ellen's turn to go. I see them both now as I once did when they visited my home on their 73rd Wedding Anniversary: Him escorting her out of the car and together; in one fluid movement; they came up the cement steps and to our front door. It was poetry in motion watching them that day, so in step and so completely in love with one another. You couldn't help but see it and feel it when you were around them! All of these occasions in our brief friendship will remain a special memory in my heart. I know that God has prepared a special place for them to be together always and I look forward to seeing my dear friends once again in Heaven.

Mrs. Barnes had a sweetness about her that was unforgettable. Even though I had only met her at Sarah and Nic's wedding and once earlier at Sarah's bridal shower. She will be missed .
