Jerry Lee Burton

West Point, 1958

Be Thou At Peace

Posted by Carole L. Burton Kayea on March 19, 2004:

Jerry, it was 44 years ago that you were taken from us in a helicopter accident at Camp Wolters, Texas. Your presence was all too brief a chapter in the lives of those who knew and loved you. You considered each friendship as a special privilege and honor. The memories of our days at Fort Rucker while you mastered the L-19 Bird Dog will forever bring a ?chuckle?.

Thanks for four great years at West Point, a year and a half of marriage and the memories of your wonderful smile and sense of humor. Carole
