    Dear Mr. Burkart (CC)

    Thanks for being such a great guy and a friend to me. I will very much cherish the memories and the fun that we had on our trips to Michigan. I will miss you terribly, and hope that GOD has fullfilled all you dreams. Until we meet again.

    Mr. Burkart always made me, as a friend of his sons Jim and Joe,feel
    welcome and I was lucky to be included on a houseboat vacation to
    Dale Hollow which was a blast. The story goes that he saw a long line at Glendale and so wondering what it was for, got in it and bought 4 tickets to Led Zeppelin in ’77. He gave the tickets to his sons and their friends of which one was me. I didn’t appreciate what history I
    had the good fortune to see because
    of Mr. Burkart. He was a very kind and giving man with class and style.
    Thanks Mr. Burkart-
    My condolences to Jim and Joe and the Burkart family.
    With many fond memories,
    Cary
