Not sure what to say?

I often think about Mr,Burke he always had a funny story too tell me when I got there In the mornings, I miss you so much I enjoyed taking care of you at the end of my shift I always left with a smile on my face Love you too infinity and beyond.

I worked with Jay for a short period of time during my NASA career. He was a true gentleman and it was a pleasure to know him and work with him. My sincere condolences to his family.

I've know Jay since 1966 at White Sands. He was a great guy and an asset to NASA. I will always consider him a friend.

RIP Jay Burke! May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.

As you remember your love one, as God heals your broken hearts (Psalm 147:3), may your treasured memories continue to bring you peace, comfort, and strength to endure.

I had the pleasure of taking care of Mr,Burke he was a great man and I'm proud to have know him.
