We were saddened to hear of the passing of Frederick ‘Rea’ Burzacott (SPC 1950-52) on 19 October 2024.
His funeral was held at Doveton Park Funeral Centre in Ballarat on 28 October.
Rea, who was born in 1938, was a day student at SPC. He commenced in the grade five and six classroom in 1950.
He enjoyed his time at SPC and was proudly followed by grandsons Riley Williams (SPC 2014-19) and Will Burzacott (SPC 2017-22).
Rea visited the College earlier this year with his family to see his personalised plaque on the Main Oval picket fence.
We extend our deepest sympathy to his family at this time.
