Longtime Knox County educator Burl H. Underwood died Saturday at East Tennessee Baptist Hospital following a Friday stroke.
A retired teacher and principal, Mr. Underwood had worked more than 40 years in Knox County Schools.
He began his teaching career in Sevier County, where he met his wife, Emma Huffaker, when they were the only two teachers at the Underwood School in the Kodak area. She died in 1983.
Mr. Underwood's last school assignment was as principal of Vestal Elementary School.
He was the last president of the Knox County Teachers League and the first president of the Knox County Education Association. He also served as president of the Knox County Retired Teachers Association.
He was active in the Republican Party and ran unsuccessfully in 1974 as a Republican for the Knox County Board of Education.
Mr. Underwood had a lifelong interest in local history and genealogy.
He had remained active and in his home until his illness.
