    Brother J.B. will be certainly be remembered, and missed by his family, his church, and all who knew him! It was my privilege to have not only been his pastor, and fellow mechanic many years ago, but to have been his friend, and Brother in the Lord, for over 40yrs. Rest in Peace my dear friend, until we meet again in Heaven some day soon!

    .So many memories I guess that comes from being one of the daughters. Memories from him spanking me when I did something wrong to teach me right from wrong he would set you in his lap and tell you he did it because he loved you as a kid you don’t understand but as a adult you know he made me the woman I am today (to taking him shopping for anything he needed he was a blast to be around ) love and will miss you so much daddy x0x0x0x0

    I have some womderful memories of Paster JB. When we firstmoved here and was looking for a home church my husbsnd met him through our children from thrm attending church there because they could ride there bikes to church. The first time we attended church there he welcomed us with open arms as if we had been attnding there forever. When othersin town would judge us because we would hit and miss at church he would load up and come tobour house to make sure whatver we were going through we new that we were loved and missed at the services. He seen the potentual that was sturing inside. He even gave us jobs at church entrusting us with the chikdren of his flock by gettin a bus for ud to drive because we always had a houseful of kids abd there friends thst wanted to go yo church snd we might make 3 or 4 times and a couple trips to colbert to gather them all up in our old van. We always felt love from him and Louise theyshowed nothing but love to everyone and never judged those that had shortcomings like we all do. He only seen e good inside and out. Paster JB always had us held up in prayer even when we would not be at church for weejs sometimes months. He oerformed 2 ofour grandchildrens dedications talked us through trouble times as a couple or if we were having a problem using the love of the Lord and scripture and would meet us at e church,the coffee shop or at our home. He answered Jesus by coming out and finding us when the Lord put us on his heart and coming when we would just want to talk about a probkem or a question about something we just coldnt find in the bible. In all he was just not our paster he was our friend and we loved him dearly. Louise you and your family are in my thoughts and prayers. May the comfert and give you piece while you go through this diffecult time. Love Mrs. April Davis

    It was a great pleasure to sit under Pastor Burrough. We loved him as our Pastor and friend. He let the spirit move in the services and so many people were blessed not only by God but by Pastor Burrough. He would help anyone in need if at all possible. He will be so missed by not only his congregation but the many, many people who loved him. We will meet you in heaven Pastor. We love you. Bro & Sis Hand & Ava
