Douglas Eugene Barnhart

DOUGLAS EUGENE BARNHART March 30, 1968-September 1, 2025. Doug Barnhart, 57, Lake Worth, FL, died peacefully on Monday, September 1, 2025. Born in Warren, Ohio, son of the late George Barnhart and Shirley (Miller) Barnhart. Doug graduated from Warren Western Reserve High School, 1986 and from Hiram College, 1993 with a bachelor's degree. Doug loved playing football, teaching, and coaching football, but his greatest love—his wife, Jennifer (Fisher) Barnhart, married on November 28, 2016. Survived by, his wife Jennifer, along with brothers, Daniel (Joanne), Richard "Jimbo" (Jolene), Greg (Kathy), Brian (Linda), and John (Jessica), stepmom, Patricia Barnhart, as well as numerous cousins, nieces, nephews, great nieces, and great nephews—he was very well loved. Preceded by brothers: Charles Barnhart, William Barnhart, George Barnhart Jr., his nephew, Steven Barnhart, and Sister-in-law Monica Barnhart. Coach Barn, Dougie Fresh, Big Money Drip, or just Doug, was a dedicated teacher, and coached football and track and field spanning over thirty years. No matter if you called him friend, brother, coach, or husband, if you knew Dougie, you knew he had a heart bigger than life—pure gold. We have all heard "He'd give you the shirt off his back" but Doug literally was that kind of guy and gave his shirt, off his back, to an athlete at a track and field event so they could participate—he was the epitome of a genuine hero. So, it's with no wonder or surprise that in 2022 he earned the most prestigious award, granted for a teacher, "MY TEACHER, MY HERO" presented by The School District of Palm Beach County. He will be sorely missed, thank you for everything, Barn. Rest in peace. A celebration of life will be announced at a later date. .
