To the Burke Family, my thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time. I had the pleasure of being able to take care of Mr. Burke at Richmond Community Hospital. He was a lovely man, very kind, and always so thankful to everyone. When he first came in we had a few talks about WWII and he told me a few stories about it. I am glad I had the opportunity to meet such a wonderful man and his family. Take care and may God's love continue to comfort you and give you peace in the days to come.
