Jesse Calvin Barnes, Sr. of Bloomfield, CT, entered eternal rest on Thursday, November 19, 2020. Jesse was born on March 20, 1937 in Orange, NJ and was the son of the late Matthew and Earo (Tisdale) Barnes. A retired employee of General Tires of Hartford and an Army veteran.
He was preceded in death by his parents, six brothers, and first grandchild (Lynkeisha Johnson). He is survived by his loving wife of 60 years, Isabell (Brown) Barnes; daughters, Robin Cherie Barnes-Johnson, Kymm Barnes Watson and son, Jesse Calvin Barnes (Marlene), Jr. He also leaves to cherish his memory one loving sister, Sarah Barnes, cousin Lillian Hopson, and a host of nephews, nieces, grandchildren, great children, relatives and friends.
Jesse knew everybody and everybody knew Jesse. He lived a life full of joy and laughter wherever he went. To know him was to love him. He never met a stranger and was a friend to everyone. He was known as the “King of Barbour Street.” Some of his favorite sayings were “good to go,” “my name is Jesse” “I’m a bad, bad boy,”, let’s go to NY and get a rabbit sandwich,” and “I ain’t no junkyard dog.”
He will fondly and forever be remembered by all who loved him. The family wishes to send a special thank you to the staff of Carmon Funeral Home, hospice staff, and Vitas Healthcare for their care and compassion.
