Our loving and devoted mother, grandmother, sister and friend, Mary Marie Barnett, age 99, went to her Heavenly Home on Wednesday, January 12, 2022. Mary was born February 14, 1922 in Oklahoma City to John and Marie (Black) Keller. She married her high school sweetheart, Joe (Bill) Barnett and together made their home and raised their children. In Mary’s younger years, she enjoyed crocheting, sewing, and playing the piano. Her and Bill enjoyed travelling and enjoyed three wonderful trips to Israel. Mary worked as a nurse for 20 years at University Hospital. Above all else, Mary loved the Lord and was known by all as a Prayer Warrior. She was never without her bible and prayed often. The family is comforted by the knowledge that Mary is with the Lord in her Heavenly Home.
