Blue was born March 25, 1970, to Rainford Elvis and Betty Jerriden (Fitts) Burton. He attended schools at Turner and graduated with the Class of 1989. Blue married the true love of his life, Sarah Clifton on March 25, 1997, in Marietta. They made their home in Burneyville where they raised their three sons.

Blue was a proud father and grandfather who loved God and showed his faith in all circumstances, setting a great example for his boys. He always had a smile on his face and was always more than willing to help anyone in a time of need. Blue loved fast cars and big motors and spent countless hours working on trucks with the boys. He drove semi-trucks as a trade and still yet had a passion for traveling. Blue was a member of the Jimtown Volunteer Fire Department and the Burneyville Baptist Church for more than 21 years.

Blue was preceded in death by his parents. Those left to cherish his memory are his wife, Sarah Burton of the home; three sons, Wesley Burton and wife Lindsey of Valley View, TX, Crook Burton of Burneyville, and Cutter Burton and his girl-friend Mackenzie of Burneyville; two grandchildren, Dallie and Madelyn Burton; two brothers, Rainford Burton of Cleburne, TX and Travis Burton of Burneyville; one niece; and two nephews.

Casket bearers are Phil Bates, Thomas Hicks, Robin Longest, Allen Hicks, Monte Dinwiddie, and Sheldon Bone.
