Mr. Burke often reminded me of the parable Jesus gave on the Good Samaritan. He often gave of his love and time unconditionally, putting others ahead of him.
I had the opportunity to work with him when he was Consul General for Grenada in Toronto. His stance for Principles was uncompromising. I wish him God speed on the next phase of his spiritual journey.
To his beloved wife Louise and the rest of the family, keep the Faith. God will never fail nor forsake you.
