Gary was a nice guy and so is the obituary you have posted.
I noticed his name is still on the ESOP list.

Hi Carol,
Ray Hall pointed out to me that Gary's name was on the Wells Fargo "lost list".  
That's the list of folks they have been unable to find to give money from an ESOP lawsuit.  
We've had info posted on it at the Club, on the web and in the newsletter the past year.  
If you still have not contacted them, you should do so.  
You can get details at the FL index website.

Subject: Re: FL Club Beechcraft 99 Incident 
(This is the incident where an engine fell off the aircraft near Greeley.) 
Something that is never mentioned is that 
Gary Burson was working the boarding area when it landed in DEN.  
The first passenger off said we lost an engine.  He said that happens sometimes.  
The passenger replied NO, I MEAN WE LOST AN ENGINE!!!!
