John Barfield Obituary

John was my brother and best friend. We played a lot of golf together. After we both retired we would get together for lunch every couple of months. He had the best sense of humor. We would laugh so much the restaurant employees and customers would give us the look.
He was there for me during my wife’s illness.
I will miss you my brother. Rest in peace. Keep em laughing until I get there with you.

I worked with John at Electric Supply and we also rode our motorcycles together on great trips out west and also locally! There was no one more loyal and a great friend than John!! We also loved his sense of humor lol. He will be missed greatly what a great family he hadsending our love and prayers.
Love you John

Pam and Sweet Family
Growing up together in Ayden we all loved Johnny! May you feel our love, hugs & prayers, Cora Hart

A great friend growing up. We played sports together and he was an outstanding athlete. Have many great memories from our days together growing up in the Ayden community. He was a good person who will be missed by all that knew him. Walter Claybrook

John (Johnny ...known by his Ayden, NC friends) was a very good childhood friend. He was an excellent athlete, playing on the Ayden School football that was undefeated his senior year. He received a grant in aid to Duke University. He also played baseball and could hit the long ball. We goose hunted and fished together at times.
In his later years he played golf with the Ayden guys.
To all his family and friends my sincerest condolences.

Our thoughts and prayers to Pam and their family for John's passing. He was a kind hearted man and good neighbor.
