Jan. 30, 1939-March 12, 2010
Charles Edward “Ed” Barth Jr. passed away on Friday, March 12, 2010, at Central Michigan Community Hospital.
Ed was born on Jan. 30, 1939, in Marysville, Calif., the son of Charles and Jean Swope Barth Sr. and was raised in Gridley, Calif.
After graduating from Gridley High School, Ed joined the U.S. Navy and was on the maiden voyage of the USS Ranger where he got to see the world. In his late twenties, Ed traveled north, turned right and ended up in Michigan where he spent the next 40 years.
Ed received his BA, MA, and Psych Specialist from Central Michigan University. He worked as a school psychologist for the Gratiot Isabella RESD and as a staff psychologist for the Regional Center.
Ed had a strong musical background and could play several instruments. He enjoyed sailing, books, theater, and his favorite pastime of bringing people together and sharing information.
Ed is survived by his mother, Jeanne Greenley of Mt. Pleasant; a daughter, Dr. Keely Callahan of Tampa, Florida; and his beloved, Jane Wittkopp of Mt. Pleasant.
A celebration of Ed’s life will be held at the Helms Funeral Home in Mt. Pleasant on Saturday, March 20, at 1 p.m.
The family will greet friends on Friday, March 19, from 6 to 8 p.m. at Helms Funeral Home.

" Ed was one of the most generous people I know always giving of himself, his talents and lots of information especially about Tai Chi. He has been a support to many in the community over the years and will be missed by all of us. "

" Ed was a great friend. He encouraged and supported so many people over the years. He was always a force for the good, not only at places where he worked, but in his community of Mt. Pleasant. I hadn’t seen Ed for awhile (since moving to North Carolina), but I thought of him and Jane and Ed’s mother whenever I thought of the Thursday night small plates crowd at the Brass, where I would run into them quite often. Ed, you were a good man and you will be missed. "
Memorial contributions are suggested to the Dan Bridenstein Memorial Foundation or to the charity of one’s choice. Envelopes are available at the Helms Funeral Home.

I'm alive, sortof
Ok...thanks Kathy for worrying. I finally got off my rear and found my sign in and passwword.
Things...meaning life has been as crapppy or worse than it has ever been for me. For those who know me at all..that's saying alot. I may expand on it later, but I don't want to make anyone feel weird or sad. It IS what it IS.
I'll be back more often.
Hub is very sick. Had another outburst/breakdown/fit/something today. I had to give him a shot ..the first and I hope the last time. I'm disjointed, and want to delete this, but want to post something to back into the groove.
