A great guy. Fair and honest. I Have nothing but respect for this man. Rest In Peace
Cathy and I would like to express our deepest condolences and sympathies to the Sanchez family. We both knew Barney when we all worked at the Allen County Sheriff’s Office. He was a special man and we will remember him in our prayers.
Debi and all of the Sanchez family, we are so sorry to learn of Barney's passing. I met him through the sheriff's dept. and can honestly say he was always very delightful to partner up with. He was one of many of the senior deputies who taught me about police work but more importantly how to deal with people and how important compassion and common sense to the job. I remember he always had such an easy smile and was always good for a funny story or twenty. We are praying for Barney and your family as you go through this difficult time.
