Dear Burgess Family,
So many fond memories of growing up together in the Michigan Baptist Family, and as they rush in, I'm remembering all of you, and your sweet Mom, and your Dad, too. Good, dear, kind, loving people, that made the world a better place in the pursuit of Christ's love, and example for living this life. May you know great peace as she rests eternally with her Savior and Lord.
