Rev. Harry R. Burnard II's Obituary
Rev. H.R. Burnard went to be with the Lord this past Thursday, May 23, 2019, in Tarpon Springs, FL, surrounded by his family. He pastored Glad Tidings/ Capitol Assembly of God in Waverly, NY for nearly 30 years and Branchborough Assembly of God in Zephyrhills, FL,for nearly 30 years. After retiring in 2005 he moved to the New Port Richey area and continued to preach each Sunday and many Wednesdays working with Shepherds Hearts Ministries, Harvest Church and various others churches. He and his wife moved into Walton Place Assisted Living on July 1, 2016, a facility owned by their son Harry Burnard, and began to hold Sunday Services .... becoming their pastor. He would always say “You don’t retire from the Lord’s Ministry,” and he proved it in his life. As many of you who knew him will attest, the Lord was his conversation and life no matter what day it was. He was beloved and admired by all who knew him, here and above. He was survived by his wife, Theresa Mary Burnard, his son Harry Burnard and his daughters Theresa Grace Jordan and Deborah Bull. We shall miss him dearly but rejoice knowing he now resides in the presence of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.
I guarantee you he is leading the choir in a spirited Victory in Jesus, I’ll Fly Away, Go Down Moses and the list goes on....
