Remembering Junior Burton: His visits will certainly be missed John Edd Burton, Jr.: November 18, 1928 - December 7, 2008 To ColumbiaMagazine.com: I will certainly miss Jr. and the visits from time to time. I loved to hear him tell how his father used to keep a bed for my grandfather, Dr. Woodruff Flowers for a place for him to hide and rest during his many years as a country doctor. I understand that they cared a great deal for each other. Jr. said they hid "Grandoc's"" car in the barn, but soon the neighbors found out and Dr. Flowers began seeing as many patients at their house as he did in his office in Columbia. I am indeed thankful for this fine family the the contribution they have made to our county. s/Robert W. Flowers 2008-12-08 15:58:09 | Comments | Printable version
