Ken Burton

Class of 1962

Another one of the Burtons from Newton, I graduated in 1962 at the age of 16. I attended ECJC and then Mississippi College. I got drafted in September, 1966, one month after getting married, and was in Vietnam from March, 1967 to March, 1968.

"What a Long Strange Trip It's Been" doesn't adequately describe my journey, but it comes closer than any other song, to make the story short. If anyone is interested in more details, email me at burton@ptsi.net, I am now in Guymon, Oklahoma. I am a licensed family therapist in private practice.

We have lost so many of our 1962 classmates. I would love to have contact information for any of them, in particular Andy Brown and Buddy Lindsey.

Peace, vote Democrat and get us out of this mess "W" has got us in to.
