Friends remember woman killed in fire
SUMMARY: The death of 82-year-old Clara Barbour in a house fire on Bristol Blvd in South Jackson has left the community devastated. Myrtle Jackson Russell, a friend of Barbour, described her as a “wonderful Christian lady.” Barbour's husband, Reverend Johnny Barbour, was not inside the house when the fire started. The fire was severe, making it difficult for firefighters to control. Neighbors reported smelling gas and hearing loud explosions before the fire, and Atmos Energy was called to the scene to turn off the gas line. Thirteen residents have been affected by the gas shutoff. Jackson-Russell says it will be a hard time for friends and family.
