My deepest condolences to Rita and all of Burt's family and friends. Burt was a great friend to my husband, Bob, during the good years spent together at Smith Mountain Lake. Bob and Burt took great pride in the Smith Mountain Lake Community and worked together to make necessary improvements that insured a place of beauty and value. Burt became a great mentor for Bob - Bob had the ideas and know-how and Burt would navigate the politics of getting things done. They had such good times together and Bob always considered Burt a great and true friend. When Bob passed away last year, of course Burt and Rita extended their heartfelt condolences to me. My hope is that they may meet up in that "better place" and again have a few laughs over a cocktail or two.
Much love to you Rita - Burt was a very fine man.
