My father Johnny "Sonny" Burwell worked for Mr Patton for almost 30 years in Lexington and I was raised in the office there as I went to school and spent many hours after school and in the summers around Mr Patton. I started helping the survey crew in the summer of 1972 at age 11 where I recall getting my first earned spending money. I had picked out a radio at the Western Auto Store on the square in Lexington and I will never forget running down the sidewalk to that store and telling the man I had my money and made that purchase .... Wow .. Those were the days Mr Patton always treated me like his own son and greeted me with a Smile. He took me to see those Bulldogs play and got me hooked on MSU I remember those trips to Starkville and all his kindness I know he is in Bulldog Heaven " leading them in a Go Dawgs Cheer!!!! God Bless the family in this time and loss He was a Good Man..!!!! Best Regards Calvin Burwell Ebenezer, Ms.
