John Albert Burr’s Later Life

Burr enjoyed the fruits of his success. Unlike many inventors who never see their designs commercialized, or soon lose any benefits, he got royalties for his creations. He enjoyed traveling and lecturing. He lived a long life and died in 1926 of influenza at age 78.
Next time you mow the lawn, acknowledge the inventor who made the task a little easier.
