My deepest Sympathy and prayers to the Burns Family in the loss of your Mother, Ms Greta as l grew up to know her, talking over the back fence or window. She will always be remembered as the soft spoken neighbor l grew up knowing through the years. Baby sitting with all of you kids in my teen years l can remember her always smiling and sweet natured. My visits home, l dropped in to say hello she was always happy to see me with a hug and a kiss. Catching up on all of her children and grands she was so proud of you all. Losing a mother is one of the deepest sorrows a heart can know to bear and never get over. Just remember we all grieve with you but know her memory will live on in your hearts, her smiles, laughter, and especially love you shared will forever be with you in your hearts as you remember each event, births, and gatherings. To know a mother´s love, she will always with you. A long time family friend, and neighbor my prayers are with you. Much love,
