Preceded in death by parents, A. H. “Al” and Charlotte (Goddard) Burling. Survived by wife, Dee Burling; daughter, Amy Baker; son, Dave Burling; two granddaughters, Abby and Ava Baker; sister, Becky Wolf (Warren); nieces and nephews; other relatives and friends.
The family will receive friends Saturday, May 14th from 10:30am to 11:30am, followed by SERVICES at 11:30am, all at the Mortuary. GRAVESIDE SERVICE Saturday, 2:30pm at Pleasant Hill Cemetery in Dunlap, Iowa. Memorials are suggested to UNMC Vascular Surgery Research.
An instant smile, laughter, sheer happiness. All of these come to mind when I think of you. With deep condolences to your wife and family, I know that the heavens become more joyeous by your presence.
We all looked forward to our '61 class reunions and your stories. You brought so much joy and laughter to our get togethers. Thanks for those great memories and for your friendship all these years, dear Buzz!
There probably are many other Buzz's in this world but ours was special--he had a special sense about him that showed not only humor but intelligent humor. I haven't thought for years that his name was Alfred. To us he is and will always be Buzz. A super good guy! Easy to really like him. John Stone
Buzz was always the life of any conversation. He used to stop in once in a while here in Mandan when he was a regional salesman for KIA. Was always a treat to see and visit with the man. Will be missed. Rest in peace my friend.
