In memoriam Dr. Jack S. Burks

In memoriam Dr. Jack S. Burks

In Memoriam Jack S. Burks, MD

Dr. Burks, or Jack as he liked to be known, was a founder of the CMSC. He was a visionary; a consummate professional; a team player; a researcher; and a personal friend. He co-chaired a conference with me in 1992 that led to the growth of the CMSC and its reputation for the team approach to MS care. It was my honor and privilege to work with Jack on a number of projects and I am proud to say that he was a valued partner who oversaw the growth of the Consortium of MS Centers. He will be missed.

Dr. Burks, may your memory be a blessing. Amen.
