Wayne "Burt" McDermott Jr.

Cindy and Family, growing up on Cooper Avenue was one big family. Burt was the biggest kid of all the Cooper Ave. Bunch so he kept us all in line. It was one game of football or basketball or baseball after another. Then it was lashing my sister to a telephone pole ( all in good fun ) and pelting her with red berries! I remember the day Burt went away to school in Michigan. That was a big deal for the whole neighborhood! Burt and I then worked at Wallace Silversmiths for a year. After...

I was saddened to learn of the paasing of Wayne. I graduated from Lyman Hall H.S. with Wayne. A very nice guy. I live in Rhode Island now that was why there was a time gap. I'll say a prayer for Wayne and his family. --- Alfred Grindell of Middletown, R.I.

So sorry for your loss. We had great memories from Girl Scout Camporees with "Mr. Mc-Corn-dog" and the rather large fires he'd build and the stories we'd tell around them.

Cindy: so very sorry to hear of burt's passing. I have fond memories of him from church fellowship.

Cindy & Family,
We were so shocked to hear of Bert' s passing. Our thoughts are with you. I am sorry I can't be there for services. Please let us know if we can help in any way. Shelley Andrews Duchesne and family.

Dear Cindy, Tim, Kate, and the entire McDermott Family:
I am deeply saddened to hear of Burt's passing. I have many fond memories of him from picking us up from cheerleading pratice, seeing him while visiting or even saying a quick hi from my back yard. He was such a loving and caring man. My prayers and deepest sympathy are with you all during this sad time.

To the McDermott Family,
I have fond memories of working for years with Burt's Mom at Gaylord, and also of chatting with Tim at Adamo's while he was pumping gas during his high school years. You are a wonderful and close family. Wishing you peace to bring comfort, courage to face the days ahead, and loving memories to forever hold in your hearts.
My sincerest sympathy to the entire family.

Dear Cindy,
