Donnie, Was sorry to hear about your Dad. I enjoyed visiting him and seeing your Mom at Lifecare. Your Mom is a special person, she had to really love your Dad. She spent alot of time up there. As you remember Daddy was across the hall. (Chief Walker, passed away 1-4-06).

To the Barfield Family, you are in my prayers and thoughts during this time of grief. The only consolation is to know that before long we will all be together again in Heaven if we have received Christ as our Savior. Mr. Barfield helped to mold me and direct me in my early years during my baseball years at Dorchester. He was a light in the community. And yes, he even corrected me when I needed it. I look forward to seeing him again when that great roll is called up yonder.
