Grover was an avid collector, loved fishing and riding his Harley Davidson all over the country and was a member of the Richmond Hog Chapter.

He was preceded in death by his father, Grover G. Barnett, Sr.; his mother, Anise N. Williams; father-in-law, Walter E. Shaw; and his brother-in-law Robert Steinbrecher. He leaves behind to cherish his memory his loving wife of 50 years, Sharon S.
