Mark Barney
Mark A. Barney, age 64 of Little Rock, ended his courageous battle with cancer on March 8, 2016 in Little Rock. He was born June 20, 1951 in Dayton, Ohio. He was the son of Harry Day Barney and Margaret E. Barney.
Mark was a Master Plumber and Heat & Air Repair Specialist for Rector-Phillips-Morse for more than thirty years, before recently retiring due to his health. He willingly served his country during the Vietnam Era in the United States Navy. Mark worked hard and made the most out of every opportunity that he was given in his life. He was lovingly referred to by his family as a "Master Bug-Killer Extraordinaire" and his grandpa nickname was "Grumps". He was a talented handyman who could fix anything! Mark loved spending time outdoors, fishing, hunting, and watching baseball, especially the Arkansas Traveler's Games, where he enjoyed taking his grandkids.
