Connie Ann (Young) Burt, 59, passed away peacefully on December 11, 2022 in Lakewood, CO. She was born on January 6, 1963 in Memphis, TN. She graduated from Southaven High School in 1981 and State Technical College in 1983. While working for the Commercial Appeal newspaper for 15 years, she met her husband, James (Jim) C. Burt.

Connie is survived by her husband Jim, daughters Allison Xie and Emily Ann Shija, parents Allen and Sidney Young, and brother Charles David Young. She is preceded in death by her brother, Robert Allen Young. She is a member of Colonial Hills Baptist Church in Southaven, MS.
