Mr. Barfoot lived in Hanceville, Alabama and passed away suddenly at the age of 62. He was born in Healdsburg, California to Jack Wayne and Virginia “Ginnie” (Enlow) Barfoot Aug. 8, 1957. He was also a truck driver for River Valley Ingredients in Hanceville.
Mr. Barfoot was a husband, father, grandfather, son, brother, uncle, and friend. Above all, he had a love for his savior Jesus Christ. He was a veteran who had a tremendous love for his country. He served 22 years in the Army National Guard, retiring from his position as sergeant in 2003.
He loved to hunt and fish. He loved nature and the beauty of God’s creation. Family was reluctant to eat his cooking. You never knew what surprise he added to it. He was caught several times adding turtle, emu, beaver, squirrel and rabbit. He was kindhearted. He would give you the shirt off of his back or his last dollar if you needed it. He was quick to lend a hand whenever needed, to family and friends.
