Who was Martie Burns?

08/13/1939~08/19/2021

Martie was a person of many wonderful qualities.  She possessed a great deal

of love for the beauty in all things.  She wonders at the view of the mountains

in the distance, and the intricate weavings of the feathers of the smallest bird.

Martie cared for the people less fortunate and always found the good in all

God’s creations.  She was willing to give of herself, time and money to help

a cause worthwhile.

She was always ready to give a compliment, or a kind word to help others

feel better.  She was loved by many and saw the good in those around her.

She was a person who loved a clean home, and took pride in the things she 

did.

A kind mother of all; she loved the little children, and they loved her for her

smile and kindness that she spread among them.

Martie strove to be a loving wife and mother and stood up strongly to those

who would hurt the ones she loves.  She was a caregiver to all and willing to

give her last dime to those she loved.

Those around her were lucky to call her friend, and those close to her were

the most fortunate of all.  She was rich beyond money and she will be

treasured by all who knew her.

Qualities, she had them all, words to describe, there are many, heartbreak

she has had some, but she carried on in her loving style, those around her

were lucky for having crossed her path-God bless her for all she did………
