After MHS and MJC, I went to Mississippi State where I graduated in Electrical Engineering. I married my wife, Marsha (a “W” graduate) and we have two children, Phyllis Barrett and Edwin Jr.
We lived in Starkville for about five years where I worked for the Aerophysics Department. After spending some time in Florida and Alabama, we returned to Meridian in 1973. Here I worked for Southern Pipe manufacturing plastic pipe and later for Southern Electric (now REXEL, Inc.).
Marsha has retired from the Post Office, but I still enjoy working for REXEL selling and supporting industrial automation equipment.
Phyllis graduated from MSU and is working as a social worker in Meridian. Edwin graduated from Georgia Tech and is working as mechanical Engineer in Richmond, VA.
Our oldest grandchild, Shae Barrett just graduated from MCC and is working at Rush Hospital as an RN. Phillip Barrett is attending MSU as an Aeronautical Engineering student, and the youngest, David Barrett, is attending MCC after graduating from MHS this past spring.
