Although we did not know Mr. Burnett personally, our son attends the Burnett Honors College at UCF. The Burnett Honors college is why he chose UCF and he loves it. Thank you so much for giving to UCF and the community. Our prayers and thoughts are with your family.

My thoughts and prayers are with you all. Mr. Burnett will be missed my many but what a joy he will be in Heaven!

Rest in peace,
Art and Jane Bullock
