Orville Grant Burdick was born March 12, 1869, and was one of three children born to Doctor Edwin and Anjanette Green Burdick. While he was yet a child the family moved from Walworth, Wis., to Monticello, Minn. Later the family went to Alfred, N. Y., and he was for a time a student in Alfred University. The family returned to Minnesota, making a home at New Auburn, from which place Mr. Burdick went to North Loup, Neb., in 1888.
On May 29, 1890, Mr. Burdick was united in marriage with Miss Martha L. Davis of North Loup. To this union were born seven children. Three of the children and the wife survive: Edwin H., Grant, and Mrs. Grace White. There is also one sister, Mrs. Pearl Morrison, and five grandchildren. The children and grandchildren were all present at the funeral services held at Olinger's Mortuary, Denver.
For eight years after their marriage Mr. and Mrs. Burdick lived in Boulder. Then they returned to North Loup where they engaged in mercantile business. They came to Denver in 1921 where he was railroad car inspector for the General Chemical Company until 1937, when an accident compelled his retirement. They held a public celebration for their golden wedding, May 29, 1940.
Mr. Burdick united with the North Loup Seventh Day Baptist Church in 1909, transferring his membership to Denver and becoming a constituent member of the church there at its organization in 1928. He was ordained a deacon May 24, 1930. He was also a member of the Odd Fellows Lodge.
Farewell services were conducted by his pastor, Rev. Erlo E. Sutton, and burial was in Fairmount Cemetery, Denver. Deacon Burdick was a faithful Christian and servant of the church, a devoted husband and father, and a friend to all. E. E. S.
