Michael Newman wrote a sympathy message

“Mr. Burroughs was a teacher......what teachers should be, He was a coach, Football, Baseball, and a role model. I remember him suiting up and scrimmaging with us before big games. (He wasn't worried about injury, he was faster than we were.) Those who never had a teacher/coach/ friend like Mr. Burroughs have missed such a great gift. Mike Newman”

Filimon Felix Lopez wrote a sympathy message

“I am Filimon Felix Lopez, in 1963 I had a bad accident and couldn't play football for C Burroughs. Coach let me be a manager for the team and I was able to play the last game of the year. He always told me to do your best and people will see it. This really helped me get to places. Condolences to Phyllis, Mrs. Ward, Elsa, and all other that thought highly of Coach. MAY YOU REST IN PEACE WITH GOD. FELIX LOPEZ.”
