I had the privilege of meeting Mrs. Burk at one of her birthday parties. She was a beautiful pleasant person.
To my good friend, Autry Burks, I know that ya'll will miss her, but God blessed ya'll immensely to have your mother for almost 115 years.
My thoughts and prayers go out to you and your family.
