For those of you who know the Burtons of Isola

Postby Wingman » Wed Jan 18, 2012 7:58 pm

Keep them in your prayers. Drew's 4 year old son, Shelton, passed away today.

I post this not to delight in bad news but I know that the Burton family is connected to a lot of hunters around the state and on this board.

Rest easy little Shelton. Your pain is gone now.

I don't know the details and I don't want to discuss it here but the little guy has had a tough time with health problems for a while.

Very Sad. Prayers for the Burtons.

I have two little boys and that would tear me apart, I can't imagine the pain. :cry:
