[Shattereddream14]

Its been a year sence you left us. you left me with a dream. ive decided to help anyone i can with cancer. i wish i could have said goodbye. you have a place in my heart like know other. i love you!~Danielle Sleigh

[jdbmspieker]

Chanda, I went to the Coo with Doug and just saw the notice of his passing in the USF Informer. I am so very sorry for your loss. My husband, Dick Marshall passed away from stomach cancer September 29, 1995 after a 3 year battle. I know how difficult the first year anniversaries can be. I just wanted you to know I am praying for you during this time and in the months ahead. Doug's video is a wonderful testimony of God's goodness and faithfulness.

I only knew Doug Barnett for a short time, but in that time he had a very large impact on my life. I knew from the moment that I met him that he was a special person. I am sad that I did not get the opportunity to know him better and to have him as a teacher, however I know that he fulfilled his purpose on this earth because he changed the lives of many people in a positive way. He helped to spread the word of God more than anyone that I know. He was a great man and I miss him so much.

Mr. Barnett, You fought a glorious battle, you have shown hundreds of kids how to live, survive and be future leaders. I wish I could tell you then what I say now, I am sorry I took your grade book all those years ago. I was a foolish kid, and you were and still are a great leader. I know you rest with god now, an dyou will be teaching his angels. May you forever be gods teacher.

Mr. Barnett,

It has been a long time since I have talked to you, but you have been in my prayers as well as the prayers at Beautiful Savior Lutheran. I am so proud to have had you as my 8th grade teacher and will always remember your kind and calm personality. You made it easy to learn and you always cared for you students. I know that you are a strong Christian man and God has done so much with you! I am so thankful that you are part of my memories and it has been a blessing to know you...

Mr. Barnett you are definitely the best teacher I've ever had. I will always remember your class and being George Washington for a week. You made it awesome with the lessons you taught and the message you gave in class. God has definitely used you to touch many peoples' life and he will be there to tell you "Well done".

Mr. Barnett, You were by far my favorite history teacher. It was so fun having you in class. You could always make us laugh and you would always see the good in us. I know that all of your students and players and everybody you have ever known will miss you.I will always remember you and will thank the lord that you were my history teacher. You were truly an inspiration to us all and me personally.

My God, I give you my heart this day:

all that I do, think or say. Amen.

Coach Barnett- This is an awesome testimony! You are an amazing man and have fought this battle as one of God's warrior. Your faith in Him has surely brought many to believe. Once a teacher-always a teacher. You were a phenomenal teacher and coach at PTJH and now you are teaching many about the love of our heavenly Father. Whether it be today or years from now, I am confident that when you meet our Lord, He will say to you- "Well done good & faithful servant." Blessings- Katie "Willis" Dibble

[ddpittman100]

Mr. Barnett,

I am so sorry to hear this news. You were an amazing vessel in my life. Without your guidance, I wouldn't know Him nor would my children. Thank you for all your patience and understanding. You made a huge impact on me. God Bless you- DeeDee Pittman (Stainbrook)

Doug, what a superb teacher you were to my girls. They still remember traveling to D.C. with you and also with Chanda. You were a true blessing in the lives of so many students who will never forget you. Thank you!

[wingchuntaiji]

You are in my prayers! Doug,

May God bless you and your family!

[jayhawkr77]

Doug- I will never forget you as a great teacher but I will never forget you as a man. I thank you for all the chats that we have had but I really want to say thanks for the ones during those Junior High years. You are truly a special man.

Mr. Barnett, We are all so blessed to have had the chance to have had such an amazing teacher in our lives. You were one of the very best and I can see still are. You and your family are in our thoughts and prayers... Kristi Hawkins

[jmeek05]

I sit here with tears running down my face as I watch this. I feel so honored and blessed to have known you as my teacher. You were one of my favorites. I watch this and I don't understand why something like this has to happen to someone so special, but you said it perfectly in this video. If God is going to use your cancer to further His kingdom then I guess that's why this is happening. But it still doesn't make it any easier for those who love you. Praying 4 U

[lladnekyrag]

Thanks for sharing your life and story with so many Doug. You say in the video that if you help one person find their way back to God it will be worth it all. I hope you look, you already reached 1,547 so far. I'm praying for your healing. Thanks for teaching my kids at school and for teaching me about life, love and grace. Gary Kendall

[randel315]

Mr. Barnett, you have always been one of my favorite teachers, this mabye the result of how you made even boring topics interesting or how you were one of the few teachers that never yelled at me. Hope you feel better soon, God bless

[glamfacexcore]

Mr. Barnett, some of my most vivid memories of junior high occured in your classroom, like dressing up as William Inge for a presentation, and falling asleep in a classroom for the first time (during Roots)! Not only were you one of my favorite teachers from eighth grade, but you're one of my favorite teachers from PT.

I'll be thinking about you often!

Taylor Hrabe

[caseymason25]

My thoughts are with you and your family. Thanks for being such a great teacher throughout the years.

[kryptonicknight]

It's Ben NIchols,

You were one of the best teachers me and Daniel both had. I want you to know me and my family are praying for you and know that what ever happens is for a reason and is part of God's plan. You have been such an inspiration to students and those who have the privilege of being around you.

With Love, Care and prayers

Mr. Barnett I will never forget our trip to Washington DC. It was so much fun. I know Nina and I made it the best trip ever ha ha. You and your family wil be in my prayers. I will never forget when you came to Seth and Sabrina's grad party and I refered to you only as my ISS teacher, little did I know I would have you the next year. You are an amazing person. God Bless You. Micala

[lauer1987]

Doug was is one of the funniest teachers I had the pleasure being a student of, many many memories with him and the family. Being over to the house for 3 halloweens with Kole cooking pumpkin seeds when I was kid are memories as a kid you dont forget. Thanks Mr, Barnett for all the times we had. If you remember when you see this post, The days I had in ISS with you in 2000 at P.T. I know you remember what happened but we'll save that for just me and you so I dont embarress myself lol.- LANCE AUER

[MasterC223]

You are one that inspired me to be a teacher. You are an amazing teacher, coach, and example of Christ's love. You are in my prayers. Thank you.

Love,

Stephanie Harwell Stewart

[danieklerr]

I came across this video indirectly; my wife went to Pioneer Trail, although she was never in your class.

You are an inspiration and The Lord will surely bless your family because, above all, you have put Him first in your life and your situation. I thank God in all things, and this is no exception. As Christian believers our lives belong to Him and not to ourselves. Thank God for circumstances that force us to rely on Him. I pray for the peace that passes all understanding for all of you!

[becloveskali]

Mr. Barnett, words can't even express how great of a teacher you are, I looked forward to your class every single day and even found different ways of taking more classes with you, I loved base you would always let us have fun (after homework of course) you were the highlight of my day everyday, you are a wonderful and amazing person and I wish that the last time I bumped into you at Walmart (about 4 years ago) I would have hugged you longer! god bless Mr. Barnett -Rebecca Paden

[trukman88]

God bless you, Mr. Barnett! Thank you for being an amazing teacher, and a wonderful person. May His grace be with you always.

Peace & Love,

[TheMamahammer]

Doug, Your willingness to share your testimony has reached deep into my soul. You have given me the courage and will to begin looking for a church home. Thank you for all that you have done to enrich the lives of Dennis' and my children, Sarah and Will. Thank you for always being kind to me when I worked @ PT. A sweeter, gentler soul, one doesn't experience very often. Bless you on your journey, I pray for healing. I am also praying for your family. Janet Hammer

[MsTabithaF]

You are a beautiful soul. You have touched so many lives through your teaching and now your testimony and we appreciate that more than we can ever begin to express. I will remain in prayer for you and your wonderful family. We are placed on this earth for a purpose and you have been a light in such a dim world. If one soul was saved because of your heart... We shall rejoice! In Gods love,

Tabitha

Mr. Barnett is one of the most memorable teachers/coaches I've ever had. He taught us to work hard and never give up. It's great to see that he's living out his teachings in his own life. My thoughts and prayers are with Mr. Barnett and his family!
