Burl was warm and welcoming to everyone. He was my friend. We would always sit together during the scout troop meetings and talk and share about stuff. Don't remember why I went to his house but I did one evening and he pulls me in and says "I wanna show you something". He leads me down to his basement and opens up a wooden chest and proceeds to pull out war momentos, rifles, gun parts, knives, etc., showing them to me one at a time; cause he knew I liked stuff like that also. Always pushing his pecans, they were good! If Anthony wasn't around to bring Russell to the troop meetings, Burl was there; he supported troop 888 up til his death and then he has a memorial set up for Troop 888. Thank you, Burl. My deepest condolences to Burl's family. I pray that God give you the strength to get through this trying time of deep personal loss. Know that Burl's spirit lives in all of you. Burl lives on in all the little stories you share with each other.
