Coming out of anesthesia after he had heart surgery in 2014, still foggy and incoherent Burt asked, “Did I die? Am I in Heaven?” Eight years later, still alive and kicking with inventions, Burt Firtel thanks his heart surgeon, Dr. Richard Cartledge, Boca Raton, Florida for eight years of gravy so far and more enroute.
During his working years, Burt sold and distributed pharmaceuticals, disposable medical supplies, and ironically funeral supplies he fortunately never needed for himself.
“My wife and I did a little travelling, played a little golf and since 1974 I’ve owned and raced trotting harness horses. Now in my 83rd year, and my wife gone since 2008, I’ve shelved the retirement word and I’m on a very productive phase of my life.”
Burt wrote and self-published a book, The Legend of the Cap, a history, mystery, and fantasy of golf, a fictional story involving real characters and spanning more than 100 years of golf.

Bert hopes to reduce the amount of children and dogs that die in cars every year.
All success from this will be for his grandchildren.
