Gregory Burda Obituary

BURDA
Gregory Patrick Burda, loving husband, devoted father, and caring son, joined the angels in heaven on May 22, 2009. Gregory was born in Sierra Vista, AZ, on October 21, 1980, the son of Daniel and Linda Burda. Gregory was currently in his sophomore year of school studying for a degree in criminal justice. His desire was to make a difference for adolescent at risk teens. In addition to his parents, he is survived by his wife, the former Stacy McKee, two daughters Anastaycia and Skylar Burda; and step-daughter Brenna Cordova. He also leaves his Grandparents, Leo and Pauline Burda of Cleveland, OH, and Frank and Kathleen Molina of San Antonio, TX, along with many other loving family members and friends.

Son, there aren't any words to describe how much I miss you. You were our life & you gave us 3 beautiful granddaughters and a beautiful daughter when you married Stacy. It feels as though our world is crumbling beneath our feet. I can't wait until we are together again. I miss the laughter and your impersonations that caused your Dad to shed tears because you made him laugh so hard. I wish those were the type of tears we had now. I miss you always tickling me & trying to pick me up. Your daughters are so much like you, and we tell them about you all the time. You can be sure that we will not let them forget you. I know that you are with God, but my heart aches every day for you, i want to kiss & hug you. I want you to tell me that it will be ok. I am still waiting for you to come see me in my dreams, I know that you will. I love you so much. As always you are my Angel. You were always so sweet and caring. You truly cared for others and how they felt. I don't know anyone who did not like you. I love you my sweet baby. Until we are together again, you are in my heart and mind & always a part of my life. Forever and Always, your Mom ("maymay").

What can I say about my nephew Greg? Really it's more like what can't I say about Greg. I have alot of memories of Greg. We grew up together and felt like he was more like a brother to me than anything because we were so close. Greg was so funny! You could be having the worst day and he just knew how to make you laugh. Greg was always concerened about his family. He always put others needs in front of his own and had the biggest heart!! I miss him sooo much but I know that he is in a much better place and is looking down on all of us. I will ALWAYS remember him and will ALWAYS miss him. I love you man!

Gregory will be missed immensely and by no means will he ever be forgotten. He will always be remembered by the way he made us laugh, how he cared about others and how he truly wanted to better his life, not only for himself, but for his family. I thank the Lord for the time that he had to spend with us but am saddened that the time was too short.
Gregory, I miss you and you will always continue to live in my heart and in my thoughts every day.

I am saddened by the loss of my nephew. I will always remember Gregory's cute little face and smile as an inquisitive four year old. I will remember his handsome smile and funny disposition as a teenager and adult....he always made me laugh.
Gregory will always be in my heart and thoughts. I will miss him.

I know that Gregory is in heaven looking down on all of us. Knowing there's no more tears of sadness; it is just eternal love brings me some comfort for him. I am just selfish and want him here with us. Gregory always made life worth living, as his wife I feel a part of me died that day too. To the ones who were blessed to have known Gregory you would be proud of the man he became. Ohio brought the best changes for him and our family. He was truly happy and was the best daddy to our kids. He amazed me with everything and no one could ever come close to comparing to him. Until we meet again Gregory, I love you and miss you dearly please continue to come and see me…

Greg was concidered my best friend. I've known him since high school, and we use to hang out alot at my house and sometimes talk about life. I also remember talking to him about God to futher his knowledge on our creator and the lord Jesus Christ. But, the last time i've seen and talked to him was 3 years ago...when my son was born. I've always wondered about him and what he's been up to since then. He will always be in my memories. Rest in peace, Greg. We miss you.
