Susan and Family as a whole, Dr. Burgin was a light at the end of a surgical tunnel for me in the 80's. Being his patient for 21.5 years --it wasn't easy to find an Internist close to his expertise/professionalism. I considered him a friend and as close to being a brother if I could only have had one.

I guess I'm one who can call him "Jimmy" as well as Dr.! He was a cherished childhood friend through High School when we parted ways. We did so many fun things together and learned lots of lessons. We were even next door neighbors. I always admired who he became as a healer of E. Tenn residents and am proud to have spent our growing-up years together. What a quality individual! The world is poorer at his passing. But heaven is richer!
