I write this blog with tears in my eyes but they are tears of happiness and sadness mixed together. Early this morning my father, Preston Howard Burdette peacefully left this world and we celebrate his homecoming with Jesus. The family has been together laughing and crying and sharing memories of a man who has left a legacy . He leaves behind his wife of 65 years, his 5 children, 16 grandchildren (he is now with his granddaughter Kelsey) and 21 great-grandchildren with at least 4 more to be born this year.
My father loved each and every one of us and shared his love of Jesus with us and built a family that also loves the Lord.
Job well done DAD. I love you and I cherish my memories of you.
