Not sure what to say?

Dr. Burstein was a fine human being who always took the time to stop and say hello. I always enjoyed speaking with him and admired his outlook on life and his passion for science.

I will truly miss my wonderful friend who taught me more about physics and courage than I was ever able to give back to him, except maybe for one book about Time that he really enjoyed. I think he could have written it! DHenry
