Highly educated, Dr. Barrick graduated from Alliance High School in 1960 and obtained his Bachelor of Science in physics, mathematics and history in 1964 from Mount Union College; Bachelor of Science in civil engineering in 1967 from Youngstown State University; Master of Science in civil engineering in 1969 from Carnegie Mellon University; his Ph.D. in civil engineering in 1972 from Carnegie Mellon University.
For 45 years, he was a consulting civil engineer, most recently for Neville Township (Pa.) and Consol Energy and other numerous firms. His affiliations included American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE), American Water Works Association (AWWA), Society of American Military Engineers (SAME), U. S. Society for Dams (USSD), Society of Mining, Metallurgy Exploration (SME), Sigma Alpha Epsilon Fraternity and numerous other professional organizations. He was the former director of American Society of Civil Engineers, Pittsburgh Section.
When not working, he was often found playing pool, or on the golf course -- mostly in the woods. Well respected for his intelligence, we will always hold him in our memories, especially his sense of humor.
