Dr. Kenny Barfield passed from this life on March 28, 2024. His dedication to Mars Hill Bible School and her students was lifelong, beginning as a teacher in 1969. Through the years he served as the Academic Dean, Principal, and was named president in 2000. He served faithfully in this capacity until his retirement in 2012.

Dr. Barfield’s favorite class was his famous Junior Bible, which he taught to every eleventh grade student for an extraordinary 53 years. This course was designed to equip students in the Christian evidences and ground them in a lifelong faith. Hundreds of former students have noted that this was the single most important course they took throughout their lives.

A preeminent scholar, Dr. Barfield wrote a multiplicity of books, including Why the Bible is Number One, Still Number One, The Prophet Motive, Revelation (Vol. 1 and 2), From Glory to Glory: This Is Jesus’ Story, and many more. He passed this love of learning to every student he encountered. Under his guidance, MHBS developed a nationally-renowned debate program that developed extraordinary public speakers. He travelled extensively with these teams, mentoring them to graduation and beyond.

His years as president were marked with school growth, academic excellence, and spiritual focus. Though he was the smartest person in any room, he led with humility, wisdom, and a servant’s heart. The genuine kindness, empathy, and love he displayed to every student made a difference in each of their lives. He was commonly heard to say that his three great loves were Nancy, his children, and Mars Hill Bible School.

In addition to his work at Mars Hill, he was also a wonderful minister and preacher, including a long-term work as the minister and an elder for the Sherrod Avenue Church of Christ. His selfless work of ministry was an influence on congregations throughout the Shoals community and across the nation.

The impact that Dr. Barfield left on Mars Hill cannot be adequately described, but we are thankful for his legacy . ““Write: ‘Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord from now on.’ ” “Yes,” says the Spirit, “that they may rest from their labors, and their works follow them.” – Revelation 14:13

Clearing process on the indoor pool at a local rehab center. The pool has been in limbo since last September. We were called in to clear, then vacuum the pool to waste.

Phosphates had been added through the local water supply, and our client complained they had added about 25-lbs of shock over a three week period, with a no chlorine level showing up after one day from application. If you have this problem, you must eliminate the phosphates from the water molecules for a sanitizer level to be established. If you don't, you will have a constantly cloudy and green pool, and no matter what you do, as you've done for years, the water will NOT clear.

Bring us a water sample. JABCO can determine your problems, and come up with a fail-safe course of action that will clear your pool in 24 to 48 hours.

We are your pool/spa professionals for over 60-years.
