This is the slideshow that was on the Rick & Bubba Show web site to honor William Bronner Burgess (Cornbread as he was known on the show). Unfortunately, we had to remove it because of the the volume of traffic on the site. I felt it was only fitting that everybody get a chance to see it and to see how beautiful he was. For those that don't know, Bronner accidentally drowned in the swimming pool at their house. The photos are courtesy of abernathyphotographics.com. The song is Lifesong by Casting Crowns...a fitting song for little Bronner and the impact he is having on others lives.

Jul 7, 2008 - Ryan, Thank you so much for posting this as well as the videos from the memorial service. I have been a Rick & Bubba fan since day one and have listened to all their ups & downs over the years and I have never seen their faith as strong as it is at this time. I feel like this is part of my family going thru this terrible loss.Rick & Sherri, God bless you both and your other children. Please take comfort in knowing you will see Bronner's sweet face again :)
