The father, Charles W. Burke, was born in Colfax, Louisiana on August 14th, 1942. Charles was the son of a farmer, carpenter and painter George Burke, Sr. and housewife Bulah Reta Burke.

Charles’ childhood was one on the farm. He assisted Bulah with the family garden where most vegetables where grown, if eaten. Life included the essentials but, with three brothers and two sisters, not much more. Charles realized at a young age, hard work was usually rewarding and moreover, laziness would not be tolerated.

Charles married the beautiful Mildred Estelle Parker on June 15th, 1963. Estelle, as she prefers to be addressed, is Charles’ very loving, supportive, hard working and God fearing wife.

Charles worked for Royo Martin Lumber Company as a shipping clerk during his early adult years until hearing of an opportunity with Walter Mischer Construction Company in Houston, Texas. Charles left Louisiana and the lumber company in 1965 to move to Pasadena, Texas and began his career in the Civil Construction Industry. He started as a grade checker earning seventy-five cents per hour and all the hours he could work, when it wasn’t raining!

Over the years, Charles was promoted to push-cat operator, dirt crew foreman, superintendent and ultimately general superintendent at Walter Mischer Company. Unfortunately, after over twenty years with Mischer, the demise of the eighties caused Charles’ acceptance of early retirement. For less than one year!
