Barney met the beautiful Carolyn Adams and convinced her to marry him in less than a year’s time. They married on May 26th, 1963 the day he graduated from Jacksonville State. Their son Nelson was born in 1966 and they welcomed their daughter Cindy in 1967.

One of Barney’s favorite past times was playing golf with his extremely competitive wife Carolyn. They traveled all over the South playing golf at different courses.
He loved driving his John Deere tractor when he was not playing golf. Cutting the grass was not a chore to him, but a fun time to play on his tractor.
Barney is survived by his adoring wife Carolyn; his son Nelson Powell and his wife Terre; his daughter Cindy Powell and her husband Clay; his grandchildren Destinee and Ko Powell; and his sister Linda Powell.
Visitation will be Monday June 1st, 2020 at Marshall Memorial Funeral Home at 9:00 am until the start of the service.
