Jeremiah R. Barber, a gentle kind soul was called home on April 15, 2019. He was liked and loved by all who met and knew him.
Jeremiah was born in upstate New York. His family moved to Miami, Florida where he stayed until the time he was transferred by Bell south /AT&T in 1985. He joined the Marine Corps and served in Vietnam from 1967-1968. He was dubbed the smallest Marine at 5’6” and 115lbs but he was just as tough as any other.
Jeremiah leaves to cherish his memory his wife of 49 years and 8 months; Lucy, two sisters; Jan (Harry) McPherson and Pat (Aldec) Broadbook, a sister-in-law; Suzanne Hitchcock and many nephews and nieces.
He will be greatly missed by one and all.
Thank you to the wonderful people at Rockdale’s ICU department that took such great care of him and kept him as comfortable as possible.
He is being cremated and therefore we ask that in lieu of flowers please send a donation to a charity of your choice in his name.
