Burke Ricardo Ehmig
March 11, 1964 – December 10, 2023
We are heartbroken to share the tragic news that our beloved guitarist Burke was taken from us suddenly on Sunday December 10, 2023.
In addition to being an accomplished player and singer, he was also our manager, co-songwriter, principal cheerleader, relentless optimist and all-around beautiful human who would always put others needs before his own. We love you and miss you, Burke. Thank you for everything and for being such a large part of our lives for the six years of the Fresh Water Sharks, but mainly just for being… you.
Our thoughts are with Burke’s loved ones, friends and family.
All our love,
Kat, Steve and Mark
