The Barnhart couple has several pets, including dogs, cats, fish, shrimp, a bird, a gecko, and horses.
Barnhart enjoys antique and thrift shopping, decorating, reading, cooking, baking, gardening, and various types of crafts, and she especially enjoys decorating for the holidays
She said the best thing about volunteering at the Food Pantry is being able to give back to the community and helping those in need. Her most memorable experience at the Food Pantry are her conversations with guests about different foods and ways to prepare them.
Nicole Freadhoff, assistant director at the food pantry, said, “Thank you for volunteering, Holly!”
