Anthony Burger

I was sad to hear of the sudden passing of Anthony Burger, the super-gifted Southern Gospel pianist. I remember seeing him the first time years ago as he played piano for The Kingsmen quartet. For many years now he has both had a solo career and a featured place in "The Homecoming" concerts and videos of Bill Gaither. I believe he also played piano behind the Gaither Vocal Band. He was only 44 years old. Burger died while playing a "Homecoming" concert during a Gaither cruise last week. Services to honor his life will be held today and later this week in Tennessee.
