Shane graduated from Jonesville Alternative High School and went on to work at Gerken Materials in Jonesville. He loved working on his 69 Chevy C10 and going for rides on his motorcycle. He was a laid-back family-man with a nonchalance for life's hardships that people could find comfort in.
Shane is survived by his wife Christina; three children, Lillian Burleson, Shane Burleson Jr., and Shawn Burleson; two stepchildren, Corrisa (Jonathin) Harvey, and Ryan Maraldo; six grandchildren, Lilly, Abby, Michael, Thomas, Lillian, and David, and one more on the way; one brother, Joe Burleson; and his parents Dave and Pam Burleson.
A memorial visitation for Shane Burleson will take place on Wednesday, November 19, 2025, from 4:00 – 7:00 PM at the VanHorn-Eagle Funeral Home in Hillsdale. Memorial contributions are suggested to the family of Shane Burleson c/o Christina Burleson.
