On November 19, 2016, William John Barton, 66, while surrounded by loved ones in his home, was called to his final resting place in the arms of the Lord. Known to all as Bill, William was born on January 30, 1950. He was a fun, loving, generous person continuing into his adulthood when he joined the United States Army. Once in the service he surveyed roads in Vietnam, and also drove tanks while stationed in Fort Hood, Texas. He served our country from 1967-1970. On February 6, 1971, William married the love of his life, Laura Richardson, from Corry, Pa. He worked and retired from Snap-Tite in Union City for 30+ years, was an active contributing member of Parade Street UMC for many years, where his family attended for most of his life.
