Bio
Burkie Lynn Harlow passed from this life to the arms of our heavenly Father on Monday, Dec. 17, 2007, in Shannon Medical Center. Burkie was born the oldest of five children here in San Angelo on Nov. 12, 1942, to Floyd B. and Oleta Harris Harlow, who have preceded him in death. Burkie graduated from San Angelo Central High School in 1961 and married his high school sweetheart, Ruby Fickling, on April 13, 1963. Burkie served in the U.S. Army during the Vietnam War and liked to laugh because he was a mechanic by trade and the Army made him a cook. Burkie was an avid fisherman and loved to hunt. He, his family and friends enjoyed the West Texas outdoors. Some of the fondest memories we have of Burkie are of the camping weekends and road trips that we all shared. Burkie was full of fun, loved his family, enjoyed nature and never met a stranger. We will miss his laughter, his unique views on life and his generous spirit.
