Erylane Woodard Barwick

February 20, 1941 — November 10, 2016

On the afternoon of Thursday, November 10, 2016, Erylane Barwick joined her beloved husband, Jefferson M. Barwick, Sr. in heaven. She was 75 years old.

Erylane was born on February 20, 1941 in Dublin, Georgia to the late Jessie J. and Minnie Harvey Woodard. She was a wonderful homemaker and committed matriarch of the Barwick Family, and loved her family more than anything.

Mrs. Barwick married Jefferson, the love of her life, at a very young age and together, they made a happy home raising two children to know and love Jesus Christ. In 1985, the family settled in Centerville and soon after, she became a devoted member of Sandy Valley Baptist Church. Erylane delighted in worship and fellowship at church and spending time with her family, but she also loved to fish, cook ("famous for her pecan pie"), sew and craft, and read. When her health began to decline, she moved with her daughter, son-in-law and grandsons in 2011 to Vermont where she was happily able to bond with her grandsons. Mrs. Barwick's memory will forever live in the hearts of everyone she knew.

In addition to her husband and parents, Erylane was also preceded in death by her sisters, Brenda Woodard and Drue Carter; and her brother, Rufus "Buddy" Woodard.

She leaves her memory behind with her loving children, Deborah Persons (Brian) of Williamstown, Vermont and Jeff Barwick, Jr. (Lorey) of Centerville; grandsons, Ethan and William Persons (Grace); sisters, Delorise Farmer and Linda Churchwell, both of Dublin; and a number of adoring nieces, nephews, and friends.

Visitation will be Thursday, November 17th from 5:00 p.m. until 7:00 p.m. at McCullough Funeral Home. Funeral services will be held at 11:00 a.m. on Friday, November 18th at Sandy Valley Baptist Church with the Reverend Phil Bryant officiating. At 3:00 p.m. on Friday, Erylane will be laid to rest next to Mr. Barwick in Minter Baptist Church Cemetery in Minter, Georgia.

In lieu of flowers, the family respectfully suggests memorial donations be given in memory of Erylane to the Care Net Pregnancy Center of Central Vermont, P.O. Box 513, Barre, VT 05641. No potted plants, please.
