Zach

In honor of Zachary Asher Barnett: March 13, 1990-October 11, 2015

Many of you know the sad circumstance in our family since October, 2015.  Our youngest son, Zachary Asher Barnett, the 5th of 6 children, took his life very unexpectedly.  He was a kind and gentle young man, always ready to listen with genuine interest and concern.  His sensitivity and humor charmed us all but he also suffered from depression.  As we work through this grief we have found deep comfort in the hope of the resurrection.

The most of the works on this page are not for sale.  I made most of them as our family grieved together but some were made as prayers for Zach when he was still troubled and with us.  Family members were encouraged to request the piece that conveyed comfort and hope to them.  Most are in the private collection of a member of the Barnett Family.  I invite you to read the comments I've written about most of these in this blog entry. The few that I have made multiples of (for sale) are the last four.
