So many great memories of Grandma Burtz! Celebrating Easter, Christmas, birthday parties; garage sales. Though I hadn´t seen her in many years I will always smile thinking of her.
Uncle Bill, Aunt Sandy, Nikki and Leah you are in my thoughts and prayers during this difficult time, as is the rest of the Burtzlaff family. With love, Jodi
