Jean Stone Houser, the mother of Kim and Pastor Bill Barnes, passed away November 9 at the age of 89. She is survived by her two daughters, four granddaughters, and two great-grandsons. Jean was an avid tennis player. She was involved and served her church Christ Methodist Church in Fort Lauderdale, until moving here in 2014 to be closer to her family. During her time here, while living in her community, she loved gardening and feeding the birds, and sometimes deer. Jean was a devoted Girl Scout Leader and volunteer for almost 20 years. They honored her with the “Thank Badge” for her commitment to the organization and the lives she touched. Please continue to lift up the Barnes family in prayer on the recent losses of both their mothers.
