Dear Linda & Family - We are so sorry to hear of Hank's passing. Such a warm, good natured, and gracious presence in our many family gatherings over the years. An outstanding role model for the many 'Barton' cousins growing up and trying to find our ways in life. We have strong and lasting memories of the love and positive energy you both brought to all of us during those formative years. Much love and our condolences for your loss.

Dearest Linda (fellow Virgo) & girls I was deeply saddened to learn of Hank's passing. So sorry that we were unaware of his situation & could have added him to the People of Promise prayer list. Brings back such fond memories of all our (mis-) adventures over the years! My love & condolences are with you in the difficult days ahead.
