I have been devastated over the death of Nancy. She was a wonderful person and a dear friend. I was blessed to have known her for the past seventeen years, and enjoyed working with her in the library at Marrington. She was always a happy person who loved life and always had a smile on her face. She will be missed.

It was with a heavy heart that I learned of the passing of Nancy Barnwell, a longtime and cherished House Manager at Spoleto Festival USA. Nancy will be missed by all of the Spoleto staff who had the pleasure of working with her. I feel lucky to have worked so closely with her during the summer of 2021, which was a hectic and sometimes stressful time- But her endless positivity and joy for the arts always reminded me why working at Spoleto is so special.

Sending love light and peace to your beautiful family Nancy meant the world to the whole wide world, I believe. She was so warm, brilliantly smart, full of life and always had the perfect words to offer her friends. I wish I had some for this heartbreaking occasion. She was/is pure magic, truth and love.

John and Elliott,
When I was temporarily living on Colony Dr., I always enjoyed running into Nancy when she was out walking in the neighborhood, or chatting with her at the grocery store. I will certainly miss catching up with her at Halsey Gallery openings as well.
My heartfelt condolences to you and your extended family members.

Mrs. Barnwell was a professor of mine when I attended Charleston Southern University. She was a wonderful professor, along with being very sweet and caring. Sending prayers to her family and friends. May she Rest In Peace.

I have been devastated by the news of Nancy´s passing. There no words to express my deepest condolences. I had no idea she had been sick. I will miss her at Spoleto events and other events where we ran into each other. We were a group of faculty at Baptist College who ate lunch together and became friends.
