It is with heavy hearts that we announce the unexpected passing of Dustin Wayne Burrows, who departed this world on April 21, 2025, in Overland Park, KS. Born on January 15, 1981, in Kansas City, MO, Dustin graced us with his presence for 44 years.
Dustin spent his career in the Information Technology field, where he shared his passion and expertise for computers with many. Beyond his professional endeavors,
Dustin found joy in his kitties, as well as immersing himself in the world of books. He especially enjoyed reading history.
He was preceded in death by his cherished big brother, Christopher Burrows; his father, Terry Burrows; grandparents, Raymond and Betty Beaumont, Dwayne and Mary Lou Burrows; his uncles, Craig Beaumont and Jeffrey Beaumont; and his best friend, Jeremy Williams.
Left to honor Dustin's memory are his loving mother and stepfather, Melissa and Steve Lindquist; his adored big sister, Jennifer Meschino; his dear nieces and nephews, Jamela, Lindsay, Noah, Harlee, Parker, Bailey, Serenity, Octavian and Aaliyah. He will be missed by his aunt, Leigh Ann Thomas, his uncle, Courtney Beaumont, and his stepfather, Craig Lynch.
Dustin's warmth, hugs and humor touched all who knew him, and he will be forever missed by his family, friends, and all those whose lives he brightened. May he rest in eternal peace.
Private services will be held at a later date to celebrate Dustin's life, legacy and love.

I´m so sad to learn of your passing Dustin. You were always an excellent friend, man, human, and intellectual.

I´ve had a handful of online conversations with Dustin in recent years but had not seen him since our 20 year high school reunion back in 2019. He was still the charming scoundrel I remember. You never knew where the conversation would go with him. And believe me it could go anywhere. Forever seeking the truth he was. No matter how awkward or uncomfortable it might be. He had a little Hunter S. Thompson in him. Probably too much for his own good. R.I.P.

You were always the troublemaker that kept me on my toes. You will be missed, my friend.

Dustin, we were friends for 31 years. I loved you like my brother and at loss with you not here. You shaped a big portion of who I am today. From biding for the attention of females to our goof talking over our political preferences there was nothing we couldn't mess with each other about. Thank You for being there all these years. Thank You for your friendship, I'll care those memories forever.
