Barrett Belden Buhr, our beloved friend and family man, passed away on October 31, 2024, at the age of 69 surrounded by family. 

Born in Moorhead, MN on April 16, 1955, Barrett spent his most memorable moments in Frazee, MN, where he graduated with the class of 1973, enjoying lifelong friendships he gained while participating in FFA, football, track and wrestling. 

Barrett’s life was a testament to love, character and craftsmanship. After marrying the love of his life, Mischale, on December 4, 1976, he found his calling joining the Local 1-Minnesota, North & South Dakota Bricklayers and Allied Craftworkers Union in 1978 where he worked for Meineke-Johnson, Schepper Custom Builders, Haugen Masonry and Con's Masonry until retirement in 2016. His dedication was not only to his work but to those around him, his kindness leaving a mark that many will cherish for years to come. 

When Barrett was not working, he enjoyed spending time with family, softball, being a member of the Heart of Lakes Bowhunters, bowling, working on old-time snowmobiles, motorcycling and hunting. 

A devout Christian, Barrett’s faith guided every step of his journey. His legacy continues through his devoted wife, Mischale, son Barry and daughter Maria and grandchildren, Joey, Anna and Clara, along with brothers Burl (Rena), Bill (Terry), Bob (Sheri) and was preceded in death by his parents, Royce and Mary Buhr, along with his only sister, Barbara Buhr States.
