Obituary of Kathy J. Barnard
November 21, 1967 – January 17, 2020
It would be wrong to say that Kathy lost her battle, because she never stopped fighting. No matter how sick she was, she was always so happy. When anyone else would have broken, Kathy stayed strong. Through her we know what true happiness and perseverance looks like. There was no quit in Kathy. Just because she is no longer here, it doesn’t mean she lost her fight.
Kathy is survived by her husband, Danny Barnard of Elizabethtown IL; son, Jimmy Barnard (Joanna) of Eastover, NC; stepson, Broc Barnard of Elizabethtown IL; sister-in-law, Cindy Patton of Eldorado IL; grandson, Justin Barnard of Eastover, NC; brother, Darin Davis; sister, Regina Poindexter; her niece and nephews, Aaron Davis, Andrea Poindexter, Ryan Davis, Jeremy Davis, Travis Howard; her best friend Denise Jackson; and all other family and friends.
She was preceded in death by her parents, Ollie Jim and Wanda Madeline Davis.
Special thanks to Hospice of Southern Illinois and especially Broc Barnard for helping through this difficult time.
Services are scheduled for 1 p.m., Monday, January 20, 2020 at Hardin Count Funeral Service in Rosiclare, IL. with interment in Peters Creek Cemetery. The family will receive visitors from 10 a.m. until service time at the funeral home.
