David W. Barnes Funeral Home is independently owned and operated by David and Carol Barnes of Coffeyville, Kansas. Our competitors, who are owned by corporations with headquarters in big cities, will oftentimes say they are family owned; however they don't mention that the family lives out of the area. This corporate environment leads to a lesser amount of revenue being reinvested in the community.
