Not sure what to say?

I can't stop thinking about all the wonderful memories of Pa' Burleson. Some of my best times were hanging out with him,going to pen shows, and reviewing his vast collection of purchases from estate sales and such! What a sweetheart.

What a learned and gentle man! I always looked forward to our annual Christmas visit to talk literature with Jim. Much sympathy to my cousins.
Love,
Cathy Civello

Diana, Kathy, Joanne and Steve - I am so sorry for your loss. Jim is one of my favorite people I have had the good fortune to know in my life. My thoughts and prayers are with you all.

Dr Burleson has been on my mind a lot lately. He was a good friend and I will miss him.
