Paul Raymond Barnes, a thoughtful and supportive soul, was a beacon of
reliability in the lives of all who knew him. Born on December 4, 1958,
in Corpus Christi, TX, his journey led him to Lake Havasu City, Arizona,
where he resided for 23 years. A hardworking man since the age of 15,
Paul's determination punctuated every aspect of his life, from his
career in construction to his dedication to his beloved family. As
Albert Einstein beautifully put it, "Only a life lived in the service to
others is worth living," and Paul's life was a testament to this, as he
spent his years caring deeply for those around him.

Paul's light-hearted spirit was a joy to those who knew him. His love
for a good laugh was infectious, his sense of humor was a delight, and
his long, iconic ponytail was a visible symbol of his free spirit. Paul
was not just a lover of good times, but also a lover of life's simple
pleasures. He had a soft spot for watching TV, hanging out with his
friends, and the thrill of a motorcycle ride. Yet, what mattered most to
Paul was his family. He cherished his wife of 20 years, Fernaline"Lin",
and their son, Evan, proving time and again that "the love of a family
is life's greatest blessing."

Paul Barnes leaves behind a loving tribe. He is survived by his wife,
Fernaline "Lin"; his son, Evan; his brothers, David and Greg Barnes; and
his sister, Kathy Brindley. He now joins those who have passed before
him, including his father, Raymond Barnes; his mother, Margret Milkay;
and his sibling, Carlon Connelly.

In the words of Maya Angelou, "People will forget what you said, people
will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them
feel." Paul's legacy is one of love, laughter, and unwavering support,
and it will be remembered by all who had the privilege of knowing him.

We encourage you to share your cherished memories of Paul and upload
photos to the memorial page, preserving his spirit for generations to
come.
