Eric Burns

Eric Burns was born and raised in Tyler, Texas. He served and protected his country in the U. S. Navy and fought in the Gulf War, where he received the Shellback Award. He traveled the world seven times with the U. S. Navy. God protected Burns while at war and years later, from COVID, during the Texas Rolling Blackout. Burns had to advocate for himself when he knew his body wasn't well enough to be sent home from the hospital. He lived to tell of this harrowing ordeal and the after-effects of the illness.
