So what that he was Gay! Does that impair one's ability to be great? Indeed not as many have proven throughout History.

Will the day ever come when a person's sexual preference is not even mentioned?
Burr ws a damn good Guy. Many soliders in Viet Nam knew this and in spite of it loved the man's abilities and kindnesses.

There will never be another "Perry
Mason" !

Hi. I have just read your biography of Raymond Burr and was wondering if you would like to add to it that we not only very proudly bear his name but we are situated in the town of his birth (and final resting place), very close to a city block bearing the family name of 'Burr'. At present we are a 238 seat intimate theatre, but our goal is to become a 650 seat regional performing arts facility.

A couple of small pieces of trivia: since we opened our doors in 2000 and began producing plays, it has been our custom always to have a picture of Raymond Burr included somwhere on each set, and the first toast on the opening night of every production is always to his memory.

Thought you might be interested!

Raymond Burr was one of the greatest actors around in my opinion. He could make you love him or hate him, he played his roles so convincingly. He never really got all the credit due him. He is missed terribly.
