Lenny and Sean, I was so sorry to hear about Burt. I have really enjoyed working with all of you for these many years. I feel blessed that our professional relationship became personal and a real friendship - but or course that's the kind of warm guy he was.

We are so sorry to hear of Burt's passing. He was always family-oriented, and was so happy to be building in our neighborhood, which was the neighborhood he grew up in. He always took the time to talk to our son and give him special treats and let him sit in the "big trucks". Our condolences to the family - Burt was a very special kind of guy.

May 21, 2012

Our extreme sadness cannot be shown with words. Maxine and I have such wonderful memories of Burt. We pray that Pam, Lenny, Sean and the rest of his large family will always remember how Burt treated everybody with such kindness and love. He was such an extrodinary friend to so many. We are hopeful that the wonderful memories will carry you all thru these difficult times and strengthen your love for this wonderful GUY. We wish we could be there to share you immense sorrow. Bob
