David Barnes and his wife, Jennie, seen here at the 2008 Corn Husking Competition. The couple died within half a day of each other in February. Barnes' son, David Joseph Barnes, said his father was working with weights as late as January in preparation for the corn husking event. Regular corn huskers missed the Barneses and took a moment at this year's event to honor their memory. (Eric Crump/Democrat-News) -
