ASHTABULA — Carl J. DeBarr Jr., age 84, of Dunsmore Ave., died unexpectedly Wednesday, June 13, 2012, at his residence with his loving wife, Sue at his side.
The son of Carl J. and Rose (Hollen) DeBarr Sr., he was born on Jan. 11, 1928, in Ten Mile, W.Va. A Veteran of the United States Air Force, Carl was honorably discharged 1947.
On August 23, 1949, he married his best friend and the love of his life, the former Sue Cowger, in Buchannon, W.Va. and together they celebrated sixty two years of marriage. After their marriage, Sue and Carl moved to Ashtabula where they became active in the community.
Carl retired from Rockwell Brake after many years of dedicated service, where he worked as store keeper for the brake parts division. Not one to sit around; he began driving for Ranger Express and Ashtabula Taxi. He was also on the Ashtabula Police force as an Auxiliary policeman; Carl considered it a privilege to have served the city and its residents.
Carl was active in the Ashtabula Moose #0547, and was elected to serve as Governor for eight years. For his dedication to the Moose Lodge and its ideals, he was made a life member. He also belonged to VFW 943. Carl was fond of horse racing and "going east" to the tracks with his wife, Sue and their friends. His great pleasure in life was being with his loving family. He never tired of going to watch them in their many activities or hearing of all the wonderful stories they would share with him.
Carl will be remembered for his tremendous work ethic; his love of family and friends. His strength and courage, wit and wisdom, and his faith in God. His family is much richer for having him in their lives.
He is survived by his loving wife, Sue (Cowger) DeBarr of Ashtabula; his son, Rick C. (Connie) DeBarr of Bowling Green; his daughter, Nancy S. (Nick) Iarocci of Ashtabula; grandchildren, Adrianna, Alex, Alison, Madeleine, Lemerete, Belaynesh and Negassa; sisters, Kathy (Lee) Baker of The Villages, Fla., and Dorothy Sheet and Helen (Raymond) Hall, both of Buchannon, W.Va.
