I am Ketera Barnett Mickens from Birmingham, AL. As the first born niece of Mrs. Paulette Barnett Thomas, I can proudly attest that she set the standard for the word, Auntie as she was so fondly called by my siblings and cousins. There was never a birthday or occasion in my life where her presence was absent. Keeping that same energy, she will always be close to my heart. Rest In Peace, Auntie Paulette.
Mrs. Paulette Barnett Thomas-Harrison was born in Detroit, MI on October 1, 1944 to the late Mr. Roscoe and Annie Barnett, Sr. She devoted her life to helping others. As a loving daughter, sister, auntie, and wife, there was never a task to big or small for her to do. Paulette enjoyed her family and time to fellowship. She was kind, graceful, and humble. Paulette Thomas served over twenty-five years as an educator in the Birmingham City Schools district where she taught 7th grade Language Arts and Social Studies.
I was welcomed into this world on July 16,1920, into the loving arms of my dear parent, The ophilus and Estelle Smilley Barnett in Matthews, Alabama in a wooden clapboard home built by my father. My paternal grandparents Samuel Prince and Aggie Barnett shared in the nurturing and development of my early youth and sought to protect and prepare me for the challenges of our time. Grandma Aggie, my best friend, gave me her name at birth which was immediately edited by my mother to include her mother's name, Alice. Thus becoming, Aggie Alice Mildred Barnett. I was the firstborn of my most loving siblings; George, Tom Dorothy, Elizabeth and Theophilus II. My father would later remarry, adding Willie Ann McClain to our family circle.
Our home, across the road from my Grandparents, up the road from my many first cousins, a stone's throw from our school and church, sat upon our very own land that survives me, but still takes rest within holds of the Barnett family today. First cousins were plentiful and ever present as my father was one of nine, and my mother was one of seventeen children, producing wealth of off springs for generations to come. Some of my Barnett cousins also lived on the family property which made for ready playmates. We were all remarkably close.
Our church, Church of Christ, had been well attended by two generations of my family before me. My grandparents were immovable in their faith and shared their love of God with us. Family was everything and the gratitude of having it anchored our prayers. Our thankful prayers greeted each morning, closed each day, and peppered our every meal. Scratched up meals prepared by my Grandma Aggie and homemade ill remedies made by my grandpa Prince drew many visitors who were always welcome.
The expansive Barnett land gave host to Pecan, Fruit and Cotton trees, horses, livestock and corn fields, the labor of which consumed much of my early life but produced much reward by way of fanciful feasts at Christmas and on holiday-like Sunday shared by family and friends. I had a horse that shared my name, Alice. The laborious take of farming bred within me enduring strength and perseverance that has served me well. In later years I attended Montgomery Public Schools and "Bama State" under the tutelage of my maternal Aunts and Uncles who were my teachers, principal, and ever present disciplinarians. If I were ever brave enough to act up in school, I would be spanked by them, and again by my mom when I got home, as those were her people, and should not stand for any embarrassment nor shame to the Smiley name. She would often remind me; my Grandpa Smiley was the Reverend GW Smiley. I was both a Majorette and Basketball player in school. I loved twirling and flipping that baton and was good at it. An act of which drew scoffs from fellow classmates. "That Alice Barnett thinks she's something," they would say and pick fights with me. I did not like fighting, but could, as well as curtsy, I was equally gifted at basketball, where I played center, and gymnastics. I also loved fishing and would do it often, for years to come.
It was in Montgomery where I later met and married my one and only husband, true love, and father of all my beloved children, Dennis Elmore Jackson. He would give me another name, affectionately calling "Snookie."
Our matrimony, while destined, was met with caution by my parents who perceived it to be a detour from my pending college education. Indeed, it was.
Dennis and I headed North, as did many others, to Michigan by way New York where he was based during the military. We settled Michigan, first in River Rough, and later in Detroit. The Lord blessed us with a newly constructed home on Beatrice Street, and seven children to put in it: six boys, Dennis, twins Lawrence and Lowell, Wallace (Althea - dec), Pastor Jerry (Deborah), George, and years later, one girl, Marqudi (Nathan). I enjoyed Motherhood with all its trials and rewards. I purposed to instill the values in my children that were instilled in me, plagiarizing the handbook of my Parents and Grandparents, placing then in the hands of the Lord. I love all my children dearly, and ensured they knew it. I would later love their spouses as my very own.
Upon arrival in Michigan, I planted my feet in the footprints of generations of Barnetts before me, becoming a member of Church of Christ; Holiford Street Church of Christ in River Rouge, MI where I worshipped until the present, now under the leadership of Bro. Leon Mullens (Emma). In my glory years I would enjoy visits to Abundant Life Ministries to worship with my son and daughter-in' love', Pastor Jerry and Deborah Jackson and their loving church family, experiences that blessed my beyond measure.
Family has always been important to me, and I thank the Good Luck for every branch of our family tree. I looked forward to each reunion, celebration, and any opportunity just to be among them. I have often said I have some good people.
My grandchildren are so ever so precious to me; Marqudi Tyler, my first granny (Reggie), Calvin Lavender Jackson, Alice Elizabeth Thompson, my lil Aggie (Weldone), Kelly Cooper, Leah Crawford, Deshon Jackson, Hebe lee Jackson, Tyruse Walls (Tina), Dennis Brooks Jackson (Keisha), Jeffy Cooper, Jerry Allen Jackson II, and preceding my death; Terrell Jackson (Tamiko) and Rekeyia Sanghott (Amadou). All of whom have brought me boundless joy. I have always kept an open home and heart to "my grannies" as I affectionately call them and often carried them to church with me. I enjoyed them most in bunches at a time. Them more the merrier, as the saying goes. In their younger years, they would sleep any and everywhere in our humble abode and would make a mess oft he kitchen while cooking breakfast in the mornings. The tight space made the laughs louder, the nugs stronger and the love that much bountiful. Together, they have added some twenty-six great grandchildren, and seventeen great-great grandchildren and counting to the family tree. All dear to me.
To God be the Glory for my growth and grace in the knowledge of Christ over the years. God had truly been good to me! He has remained faithful and just, even when I have faltered. He has brought me through some trying and difficult spaces, including the sudden death of my husband, two children; Dennis and Lawrence, siblings; Dorothy Gray, Elizabeth Elder, and George Barnett. Iam eternally grateful for His gift of Salvation and have benefitted from the His promises. My Lord Jesus Christ has readied me for Glory. Whom I leave behind, I hope to see in Glory; children, grandchildren, great -grandchildren and those who are yet to come, my one surviving brother; Theophilus II, nieces, nephews and host of relatives and friends.
May God be with you. The Good Lord has beckoned me!
On May 5, 1965 in Tulsa, Oklahoma a bouncing baby boy was born to Thrill and Dorothy Johnson whom they named Marcus Wayne Johnson. Marcus was to a family where there were seven children, and in those seven children were two sets of twins. Marcus happens to be one those sets. Marcus twin was a girl and they named her Marsha Jayne, there were two bouncing babies. Marcus was a shy child, and eventually he broke out of that. He became a loving out loud vibrant person.
Marcus formative education was attended at Tulsa Public Schools, including Robert Frost and Edison High School. He was a graduate in the class of 1983. After graduation Marcus wanted to travel and adventure out on his own from Tulsa. His journey took him to different states, where he made bonds with some great people whom loved him dearly. Marcus had a unique special bond with Alice Barnett, Diane and Derron Lee.
Marcus worked as a Scheduler/Track Allocation Coordinator, Joint Venture Companies for MARTA, onto working as a Project Controls Lead/Lead Scheduler, Parsons Brinckerhoff in Honolulu, HI.

Marcus loved hosting parties, reading, cooking, traveling, going on cruises, wine tasting, and was a lover of art. He had a great eye for decorating and enjoyed what life had to offer. To know Marcus was to love him, he had a sense of humor that was out of this world. You could laugh for hours, he would have your stomach hurting, have you out of breath or asking him to stop.
On February 8, 2022 God added the finishing touches to Marcus’s heavenly mansion and called him back home to rest. For as much as we will miss Marcus’ presence, we rejoice as we celebrate. Marcus was preceded in death by his parents Thrill and Dorothy Johnson, one brother Kenneth Johnson, two nieces Lynn Fields-Ivey and Candy L. Johnson.
He leaves to cherish his memory: His beloved twin Marsha Johnson; his brothers Reggie and Garry Johnson; his sisters Rashedda Frazier (Bryan), Lashedda (Damon), and Opal Johnson; three aunts Estella Barnett, Gladys Payne, and Alma Grant, there was a quit made for him that he never got to see. Little did we know he was on his way to that glorious land. Marcus reared two children Brandon and Vincent Williams; he leaves a host of five nephews Devin E. William, Royce T. Johnson, Jordan J. Wilson, Donovan E. Bennett and Jerrell Ivey; four nieces Melinda F. Johnson, Qwiawna M. Johnson, Taurean L. Hunter, and Karrington R. Frazier; also, a host of cousins, extended family and friends.
Theodore (Ted) Scott Jr., 68, passed away from this life Monday, March 22 after a brief illness. Ted, fondly known as Junior by his family, was born August 9, 1952 in Muskegon Heights, Michigan, to Joann and Theodore Scott Sr. He is preceded in death by his parents; brothers Charles Jones, Curtis Scott and Eric Scott. Ted was baptized at John Wesley A.M.E. Zion Church in Muskegon.
Ted lived every day with zest. He arose early to run eight miles and to bike eight more before starting work. He completed several marathons and was preparing for another prior to his illness. He was a voracious reader and had consumed the day’s news well before heading for a run.
He did not spend much time worrying about the past or taking himself too seriously. He lived in the present with enthusiasm for his beloved family. He leaves behind his wife, Teresa; sons Theodore (Jene) Baldwin and Evan Scott; grandchildren, Kyle Foster and Cameron Baldwin; sisters Phyllis Tolbert, Gail (Charles) Anderson, Toni Scott and many nephews and nieces to cherish memories of his thoughtfulness, pranks and jokes, wrestling, tickling and the adventures of “Palupio.”
Ted returned to the Michigan shoreline each summer with his sons, grandsons, nephews, nieces and anyone who was eager to join him for a hike up the sand dunes, a ride in a dune buggy and a splash in Lake Michigan. Ted enjoyed listening to Blues, a passion he gained from his father, and Rap with his sons. He loved the pure simplicity of living life whether it was a favorite holiday meal, a conversation with an old friend or taking a long road trip with his family.
Ted practiced law for 36 years in Columbus. He graduated from the University of Michigan with bachelor’s degrees in political science and education; he earned a master’s degree in public policy from Bucknell University followed by a Juris Doctor degree at Howard University. Practicing law was “pure joy” for Ted. He eagerly looked forward to his next trial and the art of the argument. Ted became animated when talking about law and always said, “It’s simply using common sense.”
Before establishing his private practice, he was an attorney in the Ohio Attorney General’s Office, and later a partner with the law firm, Emens, Hurd, Kegler, Brown in Columbus. Previous positions were with the U.S. Department of Health, Education and Welfare in Washington, D.C.; the Comprehensive Employment and Training Act program in Chicago, and municipal government in Muskegon. Over the years, Ted managed several local political campaigns and had served on a number of local non-profit boards.
Ted was bold, analytical, persistent and always calm under pressure. Although his last race was unexpected, he approached it bravely and with strength. He crossed the final finish line with serenity, acceptance and grace. He and his easy smile will be forever missed and loved.
