Uncle Macon was a kind and gentle soul who had a big contagious smile. When we were jus kids,I remembered Uncle Macon would throw us onto the back of his pickup truck and take us to pick fresh peaches, watermelons whatever was season during Georgia's hot Summers. My deepest condolences to the Barkley Family.
