A truly amazing woman. Always there to help and support so many. I agree with my brother Lon, never a dull moment living across the street. Mom and Peggy had many stories to tell about us kids. My prayers are with all of you Andy, Geeg, Chris and Jeff. I celebrate your moms life, as she has had many wonderful experiences and travels. I have a big smile when I think of your mom and all the neighborhood moms, and all the different bells that went off at dinner time to bring the cows...I mean children home. I love you all.

What a great lady. Truly interested in the well being of everyone she came in contact with. Wonderful laugh and terrific smile. Growing up across the street from the Andrews/Burns clan was never dull and would make a great American novel. Prayers to Jeff, Chris, Geeg and Andy and their families. Bless you all.
