Uncle Raymond was a kind, gentle, and soft spoken man of great character and impeccable integrity. He was a true intellect with so many talents, so personable and possessed a wonderful sense of humor. He leaves as a testimony to his life three amazing sons, five grandsons and a beautiful granddaughter who are all cut from the same mold. May the God of all comfort bless my sweet Aunt Beth who I love so dearly. My prayers are with this precious family.

Mr. Burgess was and is one of the best people I have known in my life. The example he set is one for all to follow. God Bless the Burgess Family.

Barry and family,

If you are a reflection of your father, then he must have been quite a man. You will think of him everyday, as I think of my father. He will be missed but not forgotten. As we say in our church "may his memory be eternal".

May God watch over all of you today and every day.
