Dear Chris & loved ones
We're believing & praying that our Heavenly Father will carry you through, order your upcoming steps, and send continuous comfort & peace your way. We were always blessed with John's kind spirit. He was truly kind. We will miss his friendship.

I had the pleasure of meeting Mr. & Mrs. Burkett in 2013. One of my first patients. He was always upbeat and exuded positivity. He changed your mood for the better! He had such a love of his wife. He will be missed for sure. Peace to Mrs. Burkett. Much love.

My uncle john was a truly unique person with boundless positive energy and an authentic zest for life. He enjoyed the warmth of connecting with others and sharing so many interesting stories. He always showed gratitude and especially appreciation and love to my aunt Chris.  He will be missed greatly and his loss felt by all of us. 
Praying my aunt and his family have courage and peace during this difficult time and that god gives you all comfort in the loving memories you have shared.  

I will always have fond memories of thanksgiving with you and aunt Chris. Praying for you and for aunt Chris to find peace in your absence.
Lots of love,
Dounia 


I got the great pleasure of getting to know John in his last couple months. He had a very big heart and a lot of advice to give. I pray that he is at peace and that his wife may find comfort and peace for herself in these difficult times.
