Mary Sperrazza wrote a sympathy message

“My sincere condolences to the Burke family. I had the privilege of working with Ed at the Errera Community Care Center . The 2 of us sat in a room together for 6 months trying to start the Veteran's Empowerment Committee, Thanks to Ed faithfully showing each week we finally got our committee. He had the biggest heart for his guys. But his biggest love was for his family. He was always there if I needed and advocate or supporter. Working with Ed was an honor. May he Rest In Peace.Mary Sperrazza”
