I am so sad to hear about Burt, Doug called me this morning to see if I had heard anything. I had no idea! Burt's been like an uncle to me for so many many years, gave me very good advice as I grew up. I started going to see him as a dentist in the 3rd grade (East Grand office), stayed thru the "Retirement Party". Burton, Freddie, Doug, Debbie, Walt and I sure had a lot of fun times together. We could just get together on a dime—one call and we were all ready, rotated houses during football. We all liked to do just about anything so just name the place and time and it was "meet up time". I had a really good phone visit with him not long ago and we were planning to get together as soon as I get a couple projects completed around here. Burt wanted to come and see what all I have done. I had just bought his birthday card… I have your family in my prayers. Mark, I am at the same phone# and address–Please call me sometime soon, Emily.
