May 18, 2016
Edna Westmoreland Burt was born in Tremonton, UT on May 6th 1934. She passed away at home on May 18, 2016 suffering multiple compilations from diabetes. She had four great loves in her life; her family, her LDS Faith, America and art. She saw her life through the eyes of a true artist and made everything in our lives beautiful and exciting. Edna has lived in Sparks since 1954. She was a sales girl and spokes women for Gail Richards Cosmetics from 1965 until 1986 when she bought the company and relocated it to Sparks, NV. Everything she touched thrived. She was a successful business woman: CEO of Edna 4CZNS Skin Care and as a full partner in Burt Rentals Properties. She has been a beloved wife, mother and grandmother and her loss is already deeply felt. She is survived by her husband; Jerry Burt, daughter; Brenda, 4 grandchildren and 5 great-grandchildren. She was preceded in death by her son, Steven Burt. A graveside service will be held at Mountain View Cemetery in Reno, NV on Wednesday, May 25th at 11:30 am. To any type-2 diabetics reading this notice we beg you, as a family who lost their loved one, to put down the doughnut and pick up a celery stick!
