Abstract: Fermionic expressions for all minimal model Virasoro characters $ch{i}_{r,s}^{p,p^{\prime }}$ are stated and proved. Each such expression is a sum of terms of fundamental fermionic form type. In most cases, all these terms are written down using certain trees which are constructed for $s$ and $r$ from the Takahashi lengths and truncated Takahashi lengths associated with the continued fraction of $p^{\prime }/p$. In the remaining cases, in addition to such terms, the fermionic expression for $ch{i}_{r,s}^{p,p^{\prime }}$ contains a different character $ch{i}_{hatr,hats}^{hatp,hat{p}^{\prime }}$, and is thus recursive in nature. Bosonic-fermionic $q$-series identities for all characters $ch{i}_{r,s}^{p,p^{\prime }}$ result from equating these fermionic expressions with known bosonic expressions. In the cases for which $p=2r$, $p=3r$, $p^{\prime }=2s$ or $p^{\prime }=3s$, Rogers-Ramanujan type identities result from equating these fermionic expressions with known product expressions for $ch{i}_{r,s}^{p,p^{\prime }}$. The fermionic expressions are proved by first obtaining fermionic expressions for the generating functions $ch{i}_{a,b,c}^{p,p^{\prime }}(L)$ of length $L$ Forrester-Baxter paths, using various combinatorial transforms. In the $Loinfty$ limit, the fermionic expressions for $ch{i}_{r,s}^{p,p^{\prime }}$ emerge after mapping between the trees that are constructed for $b$ and $r$ from the Takahashi and truncated Takahashi lengths respectively.
