Harry Burroughs Obituary, Death – Harry Davis Burroughs, III, known affectionately as Harold or Bud, passed away peacefully at his home in Media, PA, on November 13, 2023. He was 65 years old. Harry’s courageous battle against pancreatic cancer came to an end, surrounded by his loving family. A pillar in the community, he was not just a businessman but a beloved father, grandfather, husband, brother, uncle, and friend. For over 30 years, Harry dedicated his life to Phoenix Security Systems Inc., a company he owned and operated in Media.

This endeavor was not just a business to him; it was his life’s work. In recent years, he took immense pride in working alongside his son and business partner, Eric Burroughs, who brought him immeasurable joy and pride. Beyond the business world, Harry had a passion for animals, particularly his cherished dogs—Roxy, Jesse, and Rosie. His commitment to philanthropy extended to various organizations supporting animals and underprivileged individuals.

A devoted car collector, Harry also had a love for classical music, real estate, gadgets, vanilla ice cream, summers at the Delaware beach, cheese, traveling, and a good coaster. His enthusiasm for life was infectious. Known for his directness and a generous heart, Harry left a lasting impression on everyone who crossed his path. His absence is deeply felt by the many friends and loved ones he leaves behind. Survived by Udi Wiyono, son Eric Burroughs, daughter-in-law Lana Burroughs, granddaughter Evelyn Burroughs, grandson Nikolai Burroughs, and brother George Burroughs with his family, Harry’s legacy extends beyond family to a multitude of friends.

In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations in Harry’s name to the Providence Animal Center. A private celebration of his remarkable life is planned for July, coinciding with his birthday. The family encourages those who remember Harry to smile, as that is what he would want, reminding everyone to embrace life and, as he would say, “Go To Work!” Harry’s memory will live on in the hearts of those who knew him, a testament to a life well-lived.
