In Loving Memory ~
It is with much sadness and heavy hearts, we announce the sudden passing of our amazing husband, dad, papa, brother and uncle - Keath Barnett.
Predeceased by Father Jim Barnett, Mother Hazel Charters and Stepfather Bill Charters. Brother-in-law Ken Trigg.
Survived by Wife of 58 years, Gail, daughter Sherry (Mark Omelaniec), grandson Mikhail, step-grandsons, Clint, Max and Drew. Survived by sister Cory Trigg, nieces and nephews.
Born in New Westminster, B.C., Keath grew up in Cloverdale, B.C. working and helping out on the family farm. Going to school at Lord Tweedsmuir in Cloverdale. After leaving school, Keath worked for Butler Bros as a heavy-duty mechanic.
Then found his love for driving trucks and worked for Westcoast Reduction before buying his 1st gravel truck (one of many) and worked for B&B Construction for many years until retirement.
When he wasn't working, he took every opportunity to do his favorite things. Keath loved his years of racing jeeps, four wheeling, camping with all his family and many friends, hunting with his nephew Greg, and just sitting in the back yard with a fire going.
We will miss you and your gruff and tough love you showed us all. The man with a large and loud presence and an even bigger heart.
Remember, "If you are going to do a job, do it right and do it right the first time".
Keath was a resident of Clayton Care for 6 years prior to his death.
