My thoughts and prayers are with the Burnette family -- Dot, Chris and Kim. "B.D.," as I knew him, was my brother-in-law for a short period in the 1980's. He was always an upstanding guy and good provider. I am sorry for your loss.

Dot - You have my deepest sympathy in your loss. I feel badly that I am unable to come to see you in person to express my heartfelt feelings, but due to my condition, I don't feel it is in my best interest at this time. We have always felt close to you and Blackwell and your children as our families have grown up together. You all were one of the first friends we had when we moved to South Hill over 40 years ago and that friendship has continued through the years. Although, I am not able to see you now, count on me being there in the future to comfort and support you and your wonderful family. Please call Mickey any time he can help. May God grant you peace and strength in the coming days, as you treasure the many wonderful memories you and Blackwell shared. Our love, Faye
