Donald Scott Barnes

Donald “Don” Scott Barnes, 66, of Quakertown, PA, passed away on January 3rd, 2024, in his home surrounded by his loving family. Born in Lansdale, PA, Don was the youngest son of the late Fariss “Frank” Barnes and the late Lenore (Fuss) Barnes. 

Don Grew up in North Wales, PA, and graduated from North Penn High School in 1975. The summer after High School Graduation, Don met Patricia through mutual friends in the Poconos, began dating and married 8 short months later.

Don had an amazing work ethic, he worked his way up from entry-level to Vice President of Operations in the Janitorial Supplies Industry- a role he held for almost 30 years!  After his kids were grown he followed his interests a bit more and took a part time job at Grow and Sell Greenhouse. Don’s passion for life extended well beyond his professional endeavors, he was a summer baby who loved being outside barefoot, gardening and cooking amazing meals for anyone who came over to visit.   

Don loved his family & friends deeply and cherished the time spent with them above all else. Even in the midst of treatments you could find him tossing his grandchildren into the pool, grilling and playing music in his outdoor oasis. Don was a loyal friend and reconnected with many of his high school buddies over the last few years of life. The ‘over 65 club’ would gather regularly to celebrate each other, remember loved ones past and go on outings. He knows they will continue to support Pat for years to come. 

Don will be dearly missed by his wife of 47 years, Patricia; his children, Jason Barnes and Tiffany Calhoun; his grandchildren, Brighton and Ava; his siblings, Fariss Barnes III  and R. Wayne Barnes; his nieces and nephews and his companion, Kobe, the ‘purebred good boy’. 

Don and his wife, Patricia, have been members of Calvary Chapel in Chalfont, PA, for over ten years. Don was a man of strong faith, and he shared his faith through words and with thoughtful actions. He will be remembered for his generosity, kindness, and willingness to help anyone in need. 

All are invited to visit with Don’s family on February 8, 2024, for his Memorial at 1pm followed by his Celebration of Life at 2pm located at Calvary Chapel Central Bucks, 150 E Butler Ave, Chalfont, PA 18914.
