It is with profound sorrow that we announce the passing of Mr. James Burgett on October 16, 2023. Born on May 5, 1945, James lived a fulfilling life, marked by honesty, love, strength, and a commitment to truth and hard work. His legacy is his loving family, who he leaves behind, a testament to a life well-lived.
He is survived by his adoring wife, Marge Burgett, to whom he was married for many fruitful and joyous years. A cherished father, James leaves behind his two daughters, Kathryn Burgett, and his two sons, John and Jay Burgett, who carry forward his values and principles in their own lives as a tribute to their father.
The proud grandfather of Brandon Winter, Erica Hughes, Kendall Koch, Mikayla Woods, Morgan McCann, Khloe Hughes, Sophia Hughes, and Bentley Hughes; James instilled in his grandchildren the important lessons of truth and hard work. His void will be deeply felt in their lives, even as they strive to uphold his teachings and embody the noble qualities their grandfather personified.

His dedication to service was not limited to his faith; James also served as a volunteer at the Loyal Order of Moose. The impact of his contributions will be long remembered in the hearts of those he served.
James' ideals of honesty, love, strength, truth, and hard work will continue to live on in the lives and hearts of his family and everyone he touched. His legacy will be his loving family, forever enriched and inspired by his life and love.
