Pamela Barnes was honored in the spring and summer 2019 edition of The Tarleton Magazine published by her alma mater, Tarleton State University.
She has over two decades of law enforcement work, including time spent as a TDCJ correctional officer, FCS jailer/reserve deputy, the DA’s Chief of Security, and now the Precinct 3 constable.
“Helping people is addictive,” she told the Tarleton Magazine. “It changes you. You want to keep going and do more for people.”
Barnes serves on the Freestone County Child Protective Services board, helping to provide foster children of our county a safe, healthy, and nurturing environment to grow up in.
In 2017, Barnes formed Broken Crayons Restoration Life Center, a non-profit whose mission statement is engage, enrich, and empower families for successful careers, healthy lifestyles and well-balance relationships.
“Life isn’t what you gather, but what you scatter. That is my motto,” Barnes also told The Tarleton Magazine,”You’ll be remembered by what you do for others.”
The article states that Tarleton State University believes service can transform lives. Barnes has shown by her hard work that she exemplifies this value.
