I need to add a further explanation of my first post.

This is a picture of Willie with his son David at the 2017 AAC Indoor Track & Field Champioships in Birmingham Alabama earlier in the year. I have known Willie for over 45 years. Generous man, husband and Dad… He has raised an exceptional family. I have known David (son) and Janice (daughter) for quite some time and they are loving, kind just like their Dad…

God Bless Willie Burns and his family!!

Willie Burns gave me a scholarship to attend UofH, even though I was not a member of his fraternity offering the scholarship. Hell of a guy. His tailgates were a blast.
