Henry A. Burton (Hank) Obituary

Westford, NY - WESTFORD - Henry A. Burton, 64, passed away on Dec. 26, 2025, peacefully in his home.

He was born May 22, 1961 in Cooperstown, the son of Henry "Hank" and Myrna (Adair) Burton.

He graduated from Schenevus Central School and worked for the Local 17 Labor Union.

Hankie was an avid fisherman and hunter. He loved getting his buddies, brothers and nephews together to put on a good hunting drive to get the big one. He was passionate about fishing. He would always drive his huge catch around to share with his nieces and nephews- often letting them keep the fish to release in their ponds. If you saw Hankie coming, just like his dad, he would have garden bounty to share; it'd be big butternut squash, pumpkins and or his freshly grown garlic. He also took pride in baking zucchini bread, just like his mom did. Friends and family of Hankie always ate well and shared many laughs over the years!

He was predeceased by his parents; and brothers, James and Herbert Burton.

He is survived by his siblings, Bobby Burton, Don and Wendy Burton, Barb and Scott St. John; sons, Andrew and Matthew Pink; many nieces, nephews, aunts, uncles and cousins.

A celebration of life will be held at a later date.

The burial will take place in Westford Cemetery.

In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to Westford Fire Department, PO Box 24, Westford, NY 13488.

Arrangements are by Heller & Skinner Funeral Home, 155 Main St., Worcester; www.hellerskinnerfh.com.
