Howard Burr would have been 126 years old today.
One of Howard Burr's favorite motto's was this: "Don't regret growing old. It's a privilege denied to many."

He also was quoted saying: "I hate hot weather..I was born on July 26, 1900. And I'll tell you what my mother told me: 'It was a hot, humid day and I was glad to get rid of you.'" -- Howard Burr
