Kim Burnett Obituary

As a former classmate of Kim at Riverside HS, I was so sad to hear of his passing. We had not spoken in quite some time, but I always appreciated Kim's kind soul and friendliness to all. I have fond memories of our music discussions when he worked at the music store many years ago in the Greer plaza, where, of course, he learned of my obsession with Steely Dan. Speaking of which, I was always grateful for Kim when, in his role as DJ at the old O'Sullivan's (I believe that's the correct name) nightclub, he would agree to play Steely Dan's rip-roaring "Bodhisattva" for me. He would say, "But, Chris, NO ONE will dance to that!", to which I would say, "But I will!". This scenario would play out several times, and he would always indulge me, despite Kim knowing he would get complaints and scratching heads from most everyone else there! It led to many fun experiences, and it was just a testament to how easy going and considerate Kim was. My sincere condolences to Donna, their children and the entire family. Chris Porter
