Obituary
Russell “Russ” Duane Barrick was born on April 3, 1947, in Fosston, Minnesota. He was the son of Veryl and Emma (Walmo) Barrick. Russ was baptized as an infant and was later confirmed in his faith as a youth at Faith Lutheran Church in Hutchinson, Minnesota. He received his education at McLeod County Country Grade School, and was a graduate of the Hutchinson High School Class of 1965.

Leonardo DeLaCruz says
I send my condolences and prayers to the family for their loss. However, words cannot express how much our friendship meant to me. We created many memories each time you came down to the rio grande Valley. We shared a deep sea fishing trip, where we caught our limit then had a huge fish fry and you invited all the neighbors, to where I had to jump into the Arroyo Colorado to get your flat bottom boat unstuck, and many more memories. Let me say it was always an adventure each time qe were together. You will truly be missed. My you rest in peace my friend.

My condolences to the entire Barrick family, I had the privilege of getting to know Russ and Terry when they hirede as their Office Manager at Structural Specialties. My parents were glad to go to the company Christmas parties. I remember when we were moving the barn on my parents property and hired Ray from Structural and he got stuck in the mud and Russ had to come and pull him out and he got stuck too so my dad pulled them both out with his tractor. What fun memories I have for years to come. Praying for you all. God bless.
