John Barlow Jr. Obituary

John Barlow Jr. was born in Des Moines, Iowa, on September 4, 1960, and passed away in his home surrounded by loved ones on October 24, 2024, at the age of 64.

He loved Fishing, Bowling, WWE, Model cars, and Casino games, but his biggest interest was John Wayne; he had everything he could get his hands on.

He is preceded in death by his parents, Arlene & John Barlow Sr.

John is survived by his wife and love of his life, Barbara, whom he lovingly referred to as "Barbie," sisters Nancy (Greg) Davis and Sherrie (Jim) Leaf, many loving nieces and nephews, and his lifelong friend John Six.
