Todd Edward Burzler

Todd Edward Burzler, 52, passed away unexpectedly on Thursday January 29, 2026 while at his home in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. He was born on December 3, 1973 in New Britain, Connecticut, son of Edward Frederick Burzler & Janice Ann Kowalczyk Burzler. 

Todd is reunited in passing with his nephew, Jake McCoy Burzler. 

Todd was a hardworking man with a heart of gold and a passion for helping those in need. He was a skilled firefighter with Murrells Inlet Fire Department for many years where he made lasting impacts and lifelong friends. In his free time, Todd could be found cheering on the Miami Dolphins, fishing with his son and tinkering with his many projects in the garage. Todd especially relished time cooking bountiful meals for his family, going above and beyond with his holiday decorations and finding the special, sentimental meaning in all the little things in life. Above all else, Todd loved his family with his whole heart. He will be deeply missed but fondly remembered for his quick wit, bright smile and the love he had for his family, friends and setting off fireworks.
