Throughout June, we’ll be highlighting the men and boys whose stories, milestones, and presence continue to leave a mark on our family and community.
To know my dad is to love him. He has one of the kindest hearts of anyone I’ve known. He loves God, and he genuinely loves people. Our strength in adversity, resilience in the tough times, and our down-to-earth nature come from the one and only Elisha Barnes. He is many things to many people, but he’s our dad. He loves fiercely, forgives endlessly, and protects without condition. Happy Father’s Day to our hero- we love you!
