In Loving Memory of Charles Michael Burns

Lifelong pilot, first with the United States Air Force and then as a dedicated commercial aviator, Chuck was a warm, kind, and endlessly curious soul — always drawn to new technology and deeper connection. He lives on in the hearts of his son, Jonathan, and in the imaginations of the grandchildren he never had the joy to meet. Twenty years gone, forever missed.

You held me close, lifted me high.

Now you can go fast into that good night.

When you rise the sky will meet you.

When I close my eyes I always see you.

Free as you fly...
