JoEna graduated from San Dieguito High School in California. She married the love of her life, Landon "Cotton" Barrett on July 3, 1953, and they raised 3 daughters. JoEna was very faithful and raised her family at San Dieguito United Methodist Church, the same church her father co-founded.
JoEna had a passion for reading and traveling. She was a strong willed woman who was a devoted wife, patient and loving mother, grandmother and great-grandmother, and a generous friend. She owned a seamstress business with a friend in California and spent most of her time supporting the San Diego Chargers football organization with uniform repairs and adjustments. Above all she loved her family!
