It is sad for me to hear that Dr. Barton has passed. I have thought of him over the years because he was such an intelligent and compassionate man. He and his family were so kind to me. I babysat and did light housecleaning for the family when I was 12 or 13 years old. My sympathies to the family.

Anne and family – I was sorry to read this about Charles. I always like visiting with Charles. He was a bright and talented doctor who kept up with ENT developments. I arrived at Harvard for my freshman year the same year Charles graduated. We were both pilots and had a mutual interest in ranching although his experience was much more significant than mine. I have thought of him frequently over the years and wondered how he was doing. My prayers and thoughts are with you in the time of sorrow.

My condolences to the Barton Family. I have many happy memories of growing up with Charles Jr and spending time with the entire family. Dr Barton was such a kind and caring person, always taking a personal interest in our group of friends. A highlight of my summer was getting invited to the ranch, that included a plane ride from Dr Barton. Chuck, Valerie, Jason & Mrs. Barton, I miss you all and think of you often. God Bless you in this time of loss. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

Charlie was awesome. Condolences to the Family at his passing. As a first year resident in FP Dr. Barton and I struck up an unlikely discussion of “leafy spurge” in the doctor’s lounge at STE’s. I don’t recall why, but he was bemoaning the weed that was running rampant in the ditches “up at the farm”. For the 3 years of my residency, and my 4 years in Geneva, NE doing family medicine I never saw Charlie without a comment or reference to leafy spurge – it was our thing. I saw him on occasion during my 10 years back in Lincoln practicing ER medicine. I always looked forward to a conversation with Charlie. It was never mundane. Always with a note of humor. Reading his early life and training I now understand why he was such an interesting colleague. I don’t know if he knew that I went on to a career of Medical Acupuncture after ER; but no doubt he would have found that intellectually intriguing. I would have loved to have that conversation with my Friend. I will miss his wit and his embracing of Life.
