Rick has been a part of FW Barnes and the funeral industry in Ballarat for over 25 years. As his colleagues will attest there is not a church or cemetery in the Ballarat and surrounding district that Rick hasn’t been to or worked in during his career.

Rick was born and raised in Ballarat and is part of the fabric at FW Barnes. Rick’s easy going, friendly and compassionate nature is why he is respected by his colleagues and the greater Ballarat community. Rick enjoys his time away from work tinkering with his cars and socialising with friends. Rick and his wife have two adult daughters and 6 very busy grandchildren.
