John E. Burpee

I went through Manchester Central High with John and UNH, Durham again with John. He was the oldest student in Central's class of 1950, and I the youngest. He was intelligent and a class leader. We both received degrees in 1954 and went into the army. After serving UNCLE SAM we both worked for General Electric Aircraft in Lynn, Mass. We played a lot of golf together in the early 60s. We were 2 classmates 3+ years apart in age. He then moved to Florida, and I purchased his home. I have always smiled when thinking of our antics on the softball field, the local golf matches which he usually won and a day of sailing at Marblehead, MAss.

I had the privilege of working with John as he volunteered at Elliot Hospital and was an advisor on the Patient & Family Advisory Council - his commitment and dedication to others was inspiring.

Rest in Peace John,great person to play golf
with and all around good human being..Never
new of his very successful past in sports and
life..Quit man never bragged.Surely he is in
Heaven.
