I know that my mom, Mary, and the other Burroughs who have left this earthly plane before you have welcomed you with open arms as you continue on your journey, Aunt Teany. Blessings and light and love being sent for those who grieve the loss in their own lives.

Today at 11am, Aunt Teany will be surrounded by family and loved one
at 11AM for the last time before she is laid to rest.. As she has her Mass done.
Sorry I could not be there.
But I was blessed by the Lord of being with her as the Lord called her home
to reunite with the BURROUGHS family
and all her loved ones who were called home before her..
She was surrounded by love and family.
there was praying and singing.
and lots of shared memoreies.
Aunt Teany ran the race, she fought the fight and she kept the faith.
I will remember the LOVE those last 3 days here on earth..
She had her children Billy, Doris and Gloria and Don.
and lots of beautiful grand children and her 3 Sisters.. Regina, Dottie and Pattie.
nieces and nephews. and many more.
The greatest gift we have to share is LOVE. As Jesus loved us, Aunt Teany lived for the love of Christ, her family and friends.
She was a light. She called the Lady in Red, I heard from Aunt Regina how pretty she looked last night. Made my heart smile..
She loved ANGELS .. she gave one to me.
to keep to remind me of her. Now she
is no longer an Earthly ANGEL, but a
Heavenly ANGEL to watch over us all.
So when she see an ANGEL pin, photo.
think of her, and smile is knowing she is watching over us.
AS we are called home one by one,
we will be
Children of God..Our Heavely Father,
Brothers and Sisters in Christ.. She will remain
in our hearts.
Till we meet again.. Remember to die in FAITH is to absent from our body here but Present with the LORD...
remember the LOVE she had in her heart for us and us for her.
Love and prayers
