Read MoreTruly a Cool and compassionate and patient Guy. Very Open. One of the best things about Mona Shores. He was cool for that town and school.
What a blessing for all of us. Especially myself. I lost it one day and he was totally cool to me and calmed me down. Did not know him that well but he just acted like a cool big brother to me not just a teacher.
Thanks Roy/Mr. Burch

You never gave up on trying to teach me, no matter how many times I fell asleep in your class. And I thank you! I have often spoke of you to my children, about your dedication to teaching and your cool Monte Carlo SS. You will be missed

Roy! You will be missed in my life. I have to thank you for so many things again! First fly in breakfast, for letting Nate and I use some of your line and bumpers at our first boat show together. And lets not forget you keeping me motivated to finish my degree in the north land. The conversations and knowledge/ wisdom/ life lessons you imparted were truly spectacular

Roy, I'm deeply saddened to hear of your passing. You were one of the best teachers at MSHS. I still like to quote you when wrapping up meetings with your often heard, "Any questions, comments, complaints, words of wisdom?" Truly a great guy.

As the class of 1986's 30th anniversary nears,News of this loss causes a kaleidoscope of memories to tumble....Mr. Burch reaming us a new one because we didn't read the pages he assigned us (Only happened ONCE), Mr. Burch making history come alive by assigning a historical persona to each of us in class, Mr. Burch discussing my grade with me, telling me I only had to get so many percent on a paper to earn that A....( I did, he wrote 'Good Job, Kate! and I still have that paper.. Mr. Burch...
