Our beloved Freddie Warren Barton, 64, of Pecos, Texas entered into eternal rest on May 12, 2011. He was born in El Paso, Texas on August 6, 1946 to George and Dimple (Haynes) Barton. Freddie attended public school in Pecos, Texas and in Austin, Texas and was a graduate of the "Old" Anderson High School. After graduation, Freddie joined the Military and served in Vietnam. He also worked for the Pecos Enterprise Newspaper for many years.

He confessed a belief in Christ at an early age and was a member of David Chapel Baptist Church in Austin, Texas. When he returned to Pecos, Texas he was a faithful member and one of the founders of The House of Prayer Baptist Church where he was the Head Deacon. He helped Pastor James Henderson whenever he was needed. Freddie's favorite scripture was Psalms 100 and Pastor Henderson states that he loved the hymn, "Blessed Assurance."
