Mary Burkhardt

Mrs Burkhardt was a wonderful lady. She was always kind to me and I have kept my home economic book she had us create for 50+ years. Her kindness is one of my fondest memory of my high school years.

Mrs. B was truly an inspiration woman at BHS and my prayers are with her family at this time.

Mrs. Burkhardt was so special to me...she was my home-ec teacher and my friend. I've thought about her so many times and I hope she realized what a big influence she had on my life. She was a good person and a true lady.

I am so sorry for your loss.

I think of Mrs. Burkhardt very often. She was my Home-Ec teacher at Butler H.S. from the fall of 1963 through the spring of 1966. I still remember her sweet, sweet smile. She was undoubtedly the most patient teacher I ever had. I treasure my recipes from her class. Each time I open up my home economics teachers' cookbooks, I think of her. I was one of her "shoppers" and would get special check-outs to go to the grocery store for our groceries. ...

I loved and admired Mrs. Burkhardt. I still use the recipe file she helped me start in 1975.

Robert & Family, I am saddened to learn of your loss. I have many fond memories of Mrs. Burkhardt during my years at Butler High School ( Class of 1965). During this time we made "Beatle cakes" resembling the Beatle's Rock Group and we made the front page of "The Huntsville Times"! Mrs. Burkhardt also awarded me on my Senior Class Day with the Cooking Award. I have never forgotten all the cooking methods she taught me. I will always remember her as a wonderful...
