Neva Boyd Barnett, 76, of Mechanicsville, went to be with the Lord on May 26, 2026.
She is preceded in death by her parents, Ober and Elvira Boyd; and her older brother
Sonny Boyd. She is survived by her beloved husband William Barnett, her loving
daughters Kelly Stimpson (Brad) and Susie Anderson (Kevin Williams); her
grandchildren Alyssa, Robert (Tori), and Jamie; and her great grandchildren Weston
and Laken.
Neva had a love for NASCAR racing and Virginia Tech Football (Go Hokies!). She
spent her life caring for everyone around her and was a devoted caregiver to her
husband. She spent hours crocheting blankets for every new baby and never failed to
send a card for birthdays and anniversaries. Neva loved lighthouses and took pride in
seeing and climbing as many as she could on trips with husband Bill.
