Draper explained that Burgess “has been living and working in the community of York since 2010. At that time, he bought and took over an existing store that had been around for 45 or more years. He and his family bought in with the commitment to help rural American flourish. Rural America, small towns like ours, sometimes are ignored in this day and age of faceless service and big box mentalities. Our recipient wanted to put back and maintain world class service, products and work environment in this area. “Although he grew up a Kansas boy, he had the good sense to marry his wife, Casey, who was born in Henderson. Since that time, they have three beautiful kids – Brooks, Keely and Barrett. “As our awards committee spent time with our winner, it was clear he embodied the spirit of this award,” Draper said. “Innovative products and approaches to marketing, the courage to take risks by replacing old ideas with new ones, the commitment that his family has to this community and its soul, and a commitment to provide a positive work environment for a diverse team of employees.” See original story in York News Times
