Condolence: Randy, Eric and Valerie and all your family members I just wanted to say that it was a privilege to look after Wendell at Debert Court. Knowing his history and what he has done for our community not only as a business man but involvement in the fire dept. and countless other opportunities he has provided for the area, he was a truly wonderful, devoted man. My role as a CCA in providing care for him, seeing family almost daily in our facility only shows what a wonderful person he was and how much his family loved and cared for him. I found him to have a dry sense of humor and was a very stern like person. Under that straight and strict demeanor, just a look could turn into being a beautiful moment when he gave you one of those incredible heart warming grins. I will miss him at Debert Court, but I know he now being looked after by a devine presence.

Condolence: My sincere condolences to the Barnhill family. I worked at Truro Wholesalers many years ago and Wendell would come in twice a week and bring us eggs. Always smiling (like he was up to something) and also kind to everyone. When Randy took over the business we in the office knew we would miss his Tuesday and Friday visits. Wendell was a wonderful man and the future will hold many happy memories.
