Skip, Sharon, Bonnie and whole Burden clan,
You have been in my thoughts these past couple of days. Saying " Sorry" when losing someone doesn't seem like enough. I have many memories of Mike, some of which I just recently shared with Skip. Wish I wasn't so far away and I could be there. Sending my love to everyone!

Mike ( a first cousin) lived next door to me during WWII, he and I were champion scrap paper drive collectors. I would love to talk to anyone who likes to share memories. Sorry, it is difficult at my age to get to Bath when the weather is iffy, so I may not make the service.

I am praying for all of you. Mike was a blessing to me at church. He was best friends with my dad growing up and visited my dad, getting him to laugh and remember the old times, while my dad was ill. Mike's heart was so bit and so appreciated by all of us.

Hi Susan, I remember you as a patient, I was part of the Bedford St gang to which your father, Mike, my brother Bruce, and Roy Richter belonged. Cheers, Charlie Burden
