To the Burgess Family: So sorry for your loss. Mrs. Burgess was one of my teachers at Man. At a time when 'Racism in America' is at the forefront, it is important to note that Mrs. Burgess was an excellent teacher who really cared about her students, regardless of race, creed, or color. She was an amazing soul!

Sarah and Gilman, I just saw this on FB. I am so sorry to know of the loss of your mother. My heart is breaking all over again. Your mother's passing makes me feel as if my mother is passing again. They loved one another so dearly. Your mother was always so sweet, precious and kind to me. When I directed the annual conference choir, our mothers were joined at the hip the entire time we were in Buchannon. Your mother told me she was as proud of me as if I was her own child. They (our mothers) looked at one another and laughed.
What wonderful memories you can carry with you and pass them on to your grandchildren. Her wonderful legacy will be proudly carried on through both of you, your children and grandchildren. With much love and compassion, Gena

Mrs. Burgess was such an amazing woman. She was an inspiration to all who met her. Her exuberance for life was evident in her presence. I didn't know her as a school teacher as I met her late in life. My father told me this evening that he had her when he was in high school for English. He talked about what a great teacher and person she was. She exemplified and role modeled to so many in our community. Her and her loving ways have been instrumental in our little community as much as it was to her own family. I feel like we have lost the mother of our community. She was a wonderful lady and we were all better because we knew her. Much love to the wonderful family that reflects the truly wonderful lady she was.

My thoughts, my heart, and above all my prayers go out to your family in such a difficult time. Often times when a loved one goes home to be with the Lord words to express heartache are hard to come by but I pray for God to bring your family understanding, peace, and above all healing. May the grace of God be with you always. God bless.
