We met and enjoyed Burgess and the family at Kierland a couple of years ago. I enjoyed our conversations. In baseball, it always begins with a game of catch between a Father and a Son! He told me he enjoyed those moments. Always remember the moments when your eyes met and you knew the meaning without words...

I met my Burgess 58 years ago in 1963 on Sheffield Avenue in Chicago. I saw him and fell in love with him right there. This October 28, 2021 will be our anniversary.
