William M. “Mike” Barnes, 72, won his battle with cancer on Friday, Aug. 6, 2021 at M.D. Anderson Cancer Center in Houston, TX. He is now resting in the comfort of his heavenly home.
Born July 7, 1949 in Trenton to William “Bill” and Ruth Towns Barnes, Mike graduated from Trenton High School in 1967 and went on to earn a Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering from University of Missouri–Rolla in 1971.
After college, Mike worked for the Army Corps of Engineers on construction projects throughout Kansas and Missouri. He married the absolute love-of-his-life, Audrey Thaemert (nee Peterson) in 1974, and helped to found Faith Lutheran Church in Warsaw, before moving to Kansas City. After 33 years of service to the Army Corps of Engineers, Mike retired in Wakefield, KS before moving to Wharton, TX.
Mike loved his wife of 47 years with all his heart. He loved Jesus and junk food, his kids, grandkids, square-dancing, hunting, fishing and friends. He loved fixing stuff, leaving tools around the yard and starting new projects. Mike never knew a stranger and put others before himself time and time again. Whether it was donating blood, using his expertise as an engineer to help a friend or mentoring foster children, Mike left this world better than he found it.
Mike was preceded in death by his mother, Ruth Towns Barnes and a niece, Mesha Barnes.
Mike is survived by his wife, Audrey Barnes; father, William “Bill” Barnes; daughter Holly and her husband, Dwayne Dornak; sons Christopher and Douglas “Lee” Barnes; daughter Katie Barnes and her partner, Darius Gray; grandchildren Skylar, Cadence and Luke Dornak, Christopher Jr., Brett, Christian, Hailey, Douglas Jr., Tyler and Brighton Barnes, Anna Scanlan, Anthony Salyer, Darius Jr. and Kaylynn Gray; great-granddaughter Huxleigh Barnes; a sister, Dianne and her husband, Michael Moulin; brothers Robert Barnes and Douglas Barnes and his wife, Kyle; as well as numerous nieces, nephews and friends.
The family invites you to remember Mike by joining them for a come-and-go celebration of his life at the home of Dwayne and Holly Dornak, 619 County Road 420, El Campo, TX 77437 on Friday, Aug. 13 from 4 to 7 p.m.
Memorial services will be held at 11 a.m. on Saturday, Aug.14, at St. John’s Lutheran Church, 614 Pecan Street, Wharton, TX 77488. Mike will be laid to rest in a private burial service.
In lieu of flowers, the family encourages you to send donations to S.H.A.R.E., Wharton County Interfaith Coalition, 229 W. Milam St, Wharton, TX 77488.
“For I am sure that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers, nor height, nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord.” Romans 8:38-39

The Missouri Day Marching Festival is pleased to announce its partnership with Central States Judges Association. This year’s Marching Festival will welcome five members from the CSJA to judge various events on October 16th in Trenton.
Adam Hall has been a member of the Central States Judges Association since 2005. He received his Bachelor’s in Music Education and Master of Music in Percussion Performance from the University of Missouri. He also has an EdS in School Leadership from Lindenwood University. He is a proud alumnus of the Glassman Drum and Bugle Corps. He has served as a Vice President of the St. Louis Suburban Music Educators Association coordinating the St. Louis Middle School Honor Band. Since 2006, he has served in various capacities for the Mid-Continent Color Guard Association and Central State Percussion Association. Adam has been a Band Director since 2008 and is very grateful to be a part of the Missouri Day Marching Festival.
The Central States Judges Association was founded in 1959 in northern Illinois as an alternative to the pageantry judging organizations in place at the time in the drum corps activity. It was the first major adjudicators’ association to require training and examinations for judges, and many of its members were later involved in the founding and eventual growth of DCI. As the number of high school marching band contests increased, CSJA migrated to that activity, and today CSJA sends quality adjudicators to marching band contests and other pageantry events across the United States.
