Samuel Jasper Barrett, 90, of Reading, PA entered eternal rest on Friday, June 2, 2023, at Fairlane Gardens Nursing Home. Born in Spanish Town, Jamaica on April 17, 1933, he was a son to the late Charles Barrett.
For over 27 years, Samuel worked as a housekeeper for Community General Hospital, until his retirement. Previously working aboard luxury cruise ships.
Samuel took great pride in his and his home’s appearance. He was always dressed nicely and always kept a spotlessly clean and immaculate home. Samuel was a simple man who enjoyed cooking and all the simple things in life. He will be missed by all blessed enough to have known him.
Samuel's spirit will be carried on by his 3 sons Claude Barrett, Anthony Barrett and Loren Barrett. He also leaves behind 6 grandchildren Taryn Barrett, Tameekah Barrett, Ryan Barrett, Lorenzo Barrett, Kianna Barrett, and Danica Barrett; and 3 great grandchildren Tanyrah Barrett-Thornton, Hailie Samuels and Oshun Samuels to cherish his memory.
In addition to his father, Samuel was preceded in death by his son Gary Barrett; his wife JoAnn Barrett; his 3 brothers and 4 sisters.
The family will greet relatives and friends on Monday, June 12, 2023 from 2:00 PM to 2:30 PM at Theo C. Auman Inc., 247 Penn St., Reading, PA 19601, followed by a memorial service promptly commencing at 2:30 PM.
