JEROME GARCIA BARNES, SR. & MARY JACQUELINE QUEEN

BARNES QUEEN PHOTO2

 

Two incredible people left this earthly place to be amongst the stars on March 20, 2023; Mary Jacqueline Queen who went by “Jackie” and Jerome Garcia Barnes, Sr. or “Big Rome” as his friends affectionately called him. Jackie was born on December 12, 1961 to Clara “Bim” Queen and Herbert Taylor, and Jerome was born on February 26, 1964 to the late Shirley and Thomas Barnes, Sr. in Leonardtown, MD.  Jackie and Jerome both received their education in the St. Mary’s County Public School System and graduated from Great Mills High School in Great Mills, MD. Jackie graduated in 1979, with Jerome graduating a few years later in 1981.

Our family is saddened by the loss of these two souls, but we know that they are together during the greatest journey there is. They shared forty plus years of love and companionship. If you knew Jackie and Jerome, you’d know they were inseparable from day one and will remain inseparable even in eternal rest.

Family and friends will unite on Thursday, March 30, 2023 for visitation from 9:30 am – 11:00 am; Mass of Christian Burial at 11:00 am at Immaculate Heart of Mary Church, 22375 Three Notch Rd, Lexington Park, MD 20653.  Interment to follow in the church cemetery.

Offer Condolence for the family of JEROME GARCIA BARNES, SR. & MARY JACQUELINE QUEEN
