Cousin Burr
Burr Tilstrom was my cousin. I saw Burr in Chicago when my brother, sister and mother went to visit him on the Kukla Fran and Ollie television set.
My grandmother loved Burr very much for he was her nephew.
His mother, Alice was alway kind to children so Burr had this same gentleness towards us. He came to visit us when we lived on Pearl Street in St Joseph, Michigan and also in Mesa, Arizona.
At Burr's death, a friend of his wrote my grandmother a letter telling her of Burr's death. That was hard on grandmother, for if one got to know Burr that is a special memory of his character. He was fun and the puppets came to life to the three of us. Grandmother watched Burr's show when it was on which always tooks her back to Michigan.
Burr's parents were good to us, Uncle Bert and Aunt Alice .
