To all the members of Mr. Birbage family, I offer my sincere condolances. I first met Mr. Burbabe many, many years ago when my late husband who ran a grocery store at Parkers Ferry sent me to his butcher shop to pick up meat supplies for his store. I'll never forget how he patiently showed me around his facilities and shared with me the addditional equipment and services he planned. He reached all of the goals he shared with me and many more. I know he will be sorely missed by his family. He's at rest now. No more pain and suffering. To his sons and their spouces, please find time in your busy schedules to spend extra time with Mrs. Burbage.
