The Burns family was a 2nd home for me for many years. Whether it be traveling to Hawaii with the family or getting in at trouble on the back acres on the property, I knew who was always in charge, and that was Jean. She may have been short in stature but you better behave or she would get up all in your business. However she was the first one to give you a hug or offer you some food or soda when you walked in the house. She was the best female driver I had ever known. I think she once told me Papa Joe let her start driving in the pasture in Ranger when she was like 12 and never looked back. I remember watching her drive with the tips of her toes as she barely reached the petals but could drive and turn around and smack Darren or i in the back seat for acting up without missing a beat. Once when it flooded one summer and Darren, Todd Blue and I got in the canoe where’re the pond flooded and headed down the rushing water towards TCC Marine Creek. We made it to Sokol Road, which seemed like eternity before we got stuck in barbed wire where Jean was waiting for us where before getting in the suburban, she gave us a hug as we scared her to death then turned around and beat out butts. So many good times with Jean and the Burns family as she will truly be missed. I am so thankful I got to spend some in person time and phone time with Jean before her passing.

Aunt Jean will be greatly missed. I'll always remember the weekends and holidays that we enjoyed together as kids. She was the " fun" Aunt. The one who would keep a secret if dad said no more candy,, your getting one more candy! We love you all and are praying for peace and comfort for you all. ❤️
