TED HOWARD BARTON

Memphis, TN

Ted Howard Barton , 74, died October 25, 2008. A private celebration of his 
life was observed by his family. He was preceded in death by his father, 
Jordon Harmon Barton; mother, Corinne Aileene Derryberry Barton of Monroe, LA; 
sister Linda Lucille Barton Bergeron of New Orleans, LA; and daughter, Laurie 
Ann Barton Keith of White Stone, VA. He is survived by his children, Derri 
Barton Smith and husband Steve of Germantown, TN; Debbie Barton Reinach and 
husband Richard of Memphis, TN; Linda Barton Thurman and husband Dennis of 
Horn Lake, MS; Bric Jordon Barton of Hernando, MS; and John Bradford Barton of 
Ocean Springs, MS, thirteen grandchildren and six great-grandchildren.

Ted attended Centenary College of Louisiana in Shreveport, served in the U.S. 
Air Force and was also a very talented musician. He spent many successful 
years in development of business and marketing sales of industrial and 
commercial application products for W.R. Grace Company and Associated 
Waterproofing Company of Baton Rouge and New Orleans, LA. He oversaw these 
applications and/or exterior paneling for many major projects among them the 
Louisiana Superdome and industrial plants and storage silo facilities in the 
Port of Baton Rouge as well as the Broadwater Beach Marina in its heyday in 
Biloxi, MS. Ted also served as a "First Rescue Responder" in the wake of the 
devastating hurricanes Audrey, Betsy and Camille. For the past thirty-two (32) 
years, he was a friend of Bill W and was active in this recovery program 
throughout the Mississippi Gulf Coast, New Orleans, Jackson and Hernando, MS 
and Memphis, TN. Those that knew him saw him with a larger-than-life presence 
in showing great fellowship, strength and hope that helped countless others.
