    The Rev. Paul Stanley Burdick of Waterford, Conn., died June 1, 1984, at the Nutmeg Pavilion Healthcare Center in New London, Conn., at the age of 94. He was born Nov. 28, 1889, in Little Genesee, N.Y., the son of Dr. Walter and Mary Coon Burdick.

    He married the former Hancy Brooks June 12, 1922, in Waterford. He attended Alfred University before being graduated from the former Rochester Theological Seminary in 1912.

    Ordained a Seventh Day Baptist minister in 1917, his first pastorate was in Welton, Iowa. He served as missionary pastor and principal of the Seventh Day Baptist School in Fouke, Ark. Other pastorates included Rockville and Second Hopkinton churches in Rhode Island, Leonardsville and Adams Center, N.Y., and Salemville, Pa. His last pastorate was at the Waterford Seventh Day Baptist Church. After his retirement in 1965, he spent nine months with his son, Victor Burdick, a missionary doctor in Malawi, Africa, where he helped train a group of native pastors.

    A past president of the former New London Area Minister's League, he was active for many years in the Fellowship of Reconciliation, an international peace organization. His many years of service to the denomination, the Seventh Day Baptist Historical Society and the Seventh Day Baptist Missionary Society, were recognized in 1976. During the presentation of a gold-headed cane, the Rev. Mr. Burdick was described as one who "proclaimed heroically and untiringly the historic cause of Christian pacifism and nonviolence."

    Besides his wife, survivors include four sons, Victor of South Pasadena, Calif., Robert of Syracuse, N.Y., Stanley of Huron, Ohio, and Leroy of Desert Center, Calif.; three daughters, Esther Burdick and Emma (Mrs. Paul) Johnson, both of Waterford, and Marion (Mrs. Richard) Maxson of Butler, Pa.; 18 grandchildren and 3 great-grandchildren.

    A graveside service was conducted June 6th in West Neck Cemetery by Pastors Donald E. Richards and James Johnson. A memorial service was conducted June 9th at the Waterford Seventh Day Baptist Church with family, several area pastors and friends participating.
