Dustin was born April 26, 1991, to Eddie Barker and Donna Gaston. Dustin graduated from Raymore-Peculiar High School in 2009. He was the owner of Dustin Barker Sculptured Trees and Removal General Contracting. He worked alongside his dad at the business until his passing. Dustin, who was also known by many as “Buddy”, had a heart of gold and everyone loved him. Some words to describe him from his family are thoughtful, giving, funny, loving, big heart, and intelligent. He had a big smile and an even bigger hug when he saw you. Dustin loved fishing, Chiefs games, his beloved dog “Thug”, and his family & friends. He will be greatly missed!
He was preceded in death by his maternal grandparents, Don and Clay Gaston; paternal grandfather, Reggie Barker, and two uncles, Richard Miller and Ronnie Owens.
Here to cherish his memories are his parents, Eddie and Donna; his sister, Whitney Toates (Phillip); niece, Bishop Toates; grandmother, Carolyn Barker; aunts and uncles, Linda McKenzie (Buzz), Larry Miller, Jim Gaston, Debbie Gaston (Chris), Teresa Stocking (Chuck), Amie Fulmer (Brian), Debbie Owens; great aunts, Diana Harding and Kathy Gaston; cousins, Heather, Lauren, Kylee, Cole, Alyssa, Austin, Megan, Tad, James, Mandy, Jeff, Johnny Ray and many other family members and friends.
