Mr. Ernest Barry Richburg Sr., a resident of Dadeville, Alabama, passed away Monday, July 22, 2024, at the age of 69. He was born March 15, 1955, in Tallassee, Alabama, to William and Margie Richburg. Barry spent most of his childhood living with his Uncle Billy and Aunt Joyce in Tallassee.

In his professional life, he was promoted to General Manager of Great Southern Wood Preserving (YellaWood) in Irvington, Alabama. Later in life he went to nursing school and became an LPN. He worked at Tallassee Community Hospital and Lake Martin Community Hospital.

Barry’s passions included waterskiing, boating, golfing and fishing. His love of music was rivaled only by his passion for Auburn Tigers Football.

Barry’s presence-marked by humor and friendliness-will be greatly missed. As he embraced the simple pleasures in life, he leaves behind a legacy of love, laughter, and simple kindness that will live on in all who knew him.

Mr. Richburg is survived by his wife, Dottie Richburg; sons, Buck Richburg (Kristi) and Ronald Richburg; granddaughter, Jaden Bullard; great grandsons, Bryson and Mayson Bullard; brother, Ricky Richburg; sisters, Shelly Eddins and Laurie Jaye Saranthus and several nieces and nephews.

He is preceded in death by his parents, William and Margie Richburg.
