My name’s Robert Barnard. Thank you for visiting the site. It is my way of giving a small glimpse into the lives of my parents and brother.
Father: Richard C. Barnard was born on 08-06-1923 and died on 06-02-1996.
Mother: Rosemary V. Barnard was born on 07-17-1928 and died on 11-21-2019.
Brother: William R. Barnard was born on 09-20-1956 and died on 11-10-2024.
All of them were born, raised, and died in Minnesota.
My parents were survived by their daughter Linda, son William, and son Robert (Kris), grandchildren Tony (Brenda), Jesse (Ana), David (Krista), Samantha (Matt), Daniel, Chelsea, Jordan, Skylar, and Brandon, Nieces Sue (Jim) and Pam (Bill), and other family members.
Bill was preceded in death by his parents, Richard and Rosemary Barnard, and his sister, Laura Barnard. He is survived by his sister Linda, brother Robert (Kris), nieces and nephews Tony (Brenda), Jesse (Ana), David (Krista), Samantha (Matt), Daniel, Chelsea, Jordan (Ruben), Skylar, and Brandon, Cousins Sue (Jim) and Pam (Bill), and other family members.
Below are two videos and a photo gallery of 135 photos of Richard, Rosemary, and Bill Barnard, as well as various family members over the last several decades.
NOTE: I want to point out a couple of things. First, all photos should be in order from oldest to newest before the group of photos that focus on Bill were added. Second, some photos are blurry, and that’s NOT my doing. They were that way when I scanned them. I skipped a lot of photos because they were not good at all, but I kept a few blurry ones because I felt they were good enough to keep in the collection.
Can you do me a small favor? After viewing the videos and images below, could you go to the “Guestbook” and let us know you were here? That would be greatly appreciated.
The videos have the first 135 images from the gallery below. These videos were made right after my mom died in 2019. Each video has the same photos but different music, and all of the images are synched to the beat of the music. I made the videos to work specifically on your device. So, click on the type of device you’re currently using to view this website below to get started.
Thank you,
Robert Barnard
NOTE: You will see all 135 thumbnails below. All you need to do is click on the image once, and it will enlarge for your enjoyment. But I want to point out that if you’re trying to view this site on a phone, it may take longer for them to load. So, if you do not see at least 50+ thumbnails below, please give it a moment or two before viewing them. If you have problems loading them, we suggest you view the site using a tablet, laptop, or desktop.
I hope you enjoyed the photos and videos. Thank you for visiting.
