Barney A. Alston

Barney Allen Alston was born December 21, 1985 in Goldsboro, NC. He departed this life on Thursday, February 23, 2023.

Barney attended Goldsboro High School in Goldsboro, NC. In addition to Goldsboro, he also lived in Philadelphia, PA., Richmond, VA., and Durham, NC. While Barney held different jobs, among his favorite was a suite attendant at the Liacouras Center in Philadelphia, where he met many dignitaries and celebrities. He also enjoyed the office moving work with STORR which was contracted with Duke University. But his true niche and passion where he excelled tremendously was sales. Barney became one of the top salesmen in the country during the time he worked at Ashley Furniture.

Barney leaves to cherish his loving memories: His mother, Cheryl Lewis Alston; His daughter Alanna Michelle Alston (bonus daughter Jordin Jackson, mother, Lisa); His son, Davyion Oliver Thompson (mother, Leslie); Father James Earl Alston; sisters, Joanne Spruill, Michelle Alston, brothers, James Alston Jr. and Jai Alston; Uncle William H. Lewis (Helen) and a host of cousins and very close friends. He is preceded in death by his Aunt Marion Lewis and Aunt Juda Jarrett (Thomas) Grandparents William and Edna Lewis and Rev Earl and Mary Alston.
