He was active in the Salvation Army Church where he was a Senior Soldier and held the position of Corps Cadet Sergeant, Assistant Corps Sergeant Major, Disaster Canteen Relief Coordinator, along with various other positions. From his love of gold panning, the great outdoors, his corny humor, respect for other veterans and soldiers, and willingness to help anyone in need, it was hard not to love Burt. He was the most patient, kind, and loyal man.
