Kansas City

With heavy hearts, we announce the passing of Rex Scott Barker, who passed away on August 9, 2024, at the age of 66 due to heart failure. Born on September 25, 1957, in Kansas City, Missouri, Rex was a cherished son, father, grandfather, brother, and friend.

Rex dedicated 40 years of his professional life to Robbie Manufacturing (currently known as TC Transcontinental), where he developed lifelong friendships and embodied hard work and dedication. Outside of work, he had a passion for riding motorcycles, playing billiards & dice, and tossing horseshoes. He was also an active member of the Fraternal Order of Eagles and Jocks Pool League, where he shared his hobbies and camaraderie with many.

Rex is preceded in death by his beloved wife, Susan Lee Barker; his mother, Shirley Darlene Wicker; his father, Theo Harley Barker; and his sister, Tara Kae Wernes. He leaves behind a loving family to cherish his memory: his son, Scott Michael Barker; his daughters, Holly Rose Masner, Jessica Marie Harp and Nicole Lewis “daughter by heart”; his grandsons, Nathan Masner, Bradley Rogers, Johnathan Rogers, and Rylan Horn; his sister, Teddi (Terry) Paul; his “brother by heart”, Kenny Zarda; his niece, Megan Hix; his nephews, Travis Wernes and Ryan Paul; and many other dear family members and friends.

A Celebration of Life will be held on Saturday, October 5, 2024 from 4:00 to 6:00 PM. The party will be held at Fraternal Order of Eagles 4726 Merriam Dr, Overland Park, KS 66203. We invite all who knew and loved Rex to join us in honoring his remarkable life and legacy.

Rest in peace, Rex. Your spirit and love will live on in our hearts forever. Ride Free, Brother!
