I'm sorry to hear about Joe's passing. While I only knew Joe for a year, he was such a kind person with a great wit and personality. He helped me and my business introducing me to all the great folks and businesses in Waynesboro. My apologies to the Barnett family for missing visitation and the funeral. I was out of town all last week and just found out about his passing yesterday when Fr. Mike at church in Laurel asked us to pray for Joe and his family.

I had the pleasure of speaking with Joe not long ago. We talked about our families and how they were. When he spoke of his, it was with great love and respect!
Joe also took care of a small bit of business for me, in which he handled in such a professional way.
This is a kind upstanding gentleman that will be missed by so many!

I was saddened to hear of his passing. Joe was a good friend to all who knew him and willing to help anyone who was in need. He was one of the first people I met upon moving to Waynesboro years ago, he always had a friendly smile and a warm heart for those around him. He will be sadly missed and prayers go out for his family.

Joe was a friend and good person. He will certainly be missed by many, and especially me. I found Joe sincere, honest and straight-forward in our business relationship. Joe eagerly contributed his time and knowledge of real estate to many for the positive growth of the Waynesboro and Wayne County community.

From his days as basketball coach at Clara High School in the late 60's, my association with him on the Economic Board, meeting him on the street, where ever, Joe has always had a wonderfully friendly and positive attitude and kind greetings. Joe made a positive impact on Wayne County. We will all miss him and we wish comfort for his family.

I learned of Joe's death from my family in Waynesboro. I was deeply shocked at the news. I would often get calls from my Mom who would tell me about problems with her home. When I asked her what she was going to do, she would always say, "I called Joe Barnett and he told me who to call. They have already fixed it!" He was always so kind and respectful of her, I would look to heaven and say, "Thank you, Joe Barnett". I am sorry I never got to thank him in person. My prayers are with his family as they must endure this unexpected loss.

As a neighbor and friend for a number of years, my friendship with Joe goes back to when we were kids. Our folks were close and we remained in touch long after both sets of parents passed. Most recently Joe and I visited when we were in Waynesoro. He always had a special spirit about him. He was quick to help those in need. My dear friend is now gone but never forgotten. During my years in Afghanistan, we emailed quite often keeping me updated on events in Waynesboro. I will truly miss his council and friendship. May he rest in peace. Our prayers are with the family.

Joe was a High School classmate, cousin and friend for over 50 years. Although we left Waynesboro in 1968, Janice and I stayed in contact with Joe over the years and it was always good to talk to him when we were in town visiting relatives. Joe always greeted folks with a smile and a helping hand. His father and mine were good friends throughout their life.
We extend our sincere and deepest sympathy to his entire family. May the Lord grant you his loving grace during this trying time. We will miss Joe!
