Barnes (1917-1995) studied at USC (B.S. 1937, LL.B. 1940), served in the Navy during World War II, then returned home to become a prominent member of the South Carolina bar.
For more than 40 years, Barnes remained active in charitable and religious organizations, and in parallel served in the local business community as founder and chairman of the Bank of Commerce of Prosperity, chairman of the Greater Columbia Chamber of Commerce, and general counsel for the South Carolina Bankers Association for more than 30 years. In 1993, he received the Compleat Lawyer Award from the USC Law School Alumni Association for his significant contribution to the legal profession and embodiment of the highest standard of professional competence, ethics, and integrity.
