 This trustee August is hotter than ever at Appalachian Wireless, as they are slashing all normal contract pricing on all smartphones by 50% when you sign up for service. Better service, bigger saving, serving you for the last 25 years at Appalachian Wireless. A family is now broken. Longtime pharmacist and owner of Family Pharmacy, Larry Barnett, died Monday of complications during recovery from a surgery. Barnett bought Family Pharmacy in South Williamson in June of 1988 and retired in November of 2015. Staff at the pharmacy say their hearts are forever broken. This place has since he retired has not been the same, not have any here. But now with him gone will never be the same. In Barnett's 27 years at Family Pharmacy, one thing that stands out the most was his love for the community. Anytime any sports organization or church or school would come in here fundraising, Larry bought something from everybody. Larry gave donations to everybody. You know, it didn't just have to be right here in Belfry. It was all the surrounding areas. He would give you the shirt off his back. Barnett not only loved the community, he was also involved and made coming to work fun for the staff. Trick-or-treat, everybody always dressed up. We gave out candy, Larry. We go to Sam's and buy paws of candy. We had all these trick-or-treaters. We would dress up. He dressed up one year as Willie Nelson. Not only has he been an employer to us, he has been an example to us. Most importantly, the employees say they'll always remember his love for his family. All of our kids have grown up here and his grandkids have grown up here. What he meant to his family is what I hope that my family someday feels about my family.
