The Loving Light Dishgarden was sent for Eleanor Bell Burney - June 13, 2024
So much time has passed. Aunt Eleanor was married to my father's (William "Sonny" Burney) brother. In my younger years I got to know and love Aunt Eleanor. I also admired her beauty. Though, she may not remember, I had the pleasure of meeting Becky when they attended my father's funeral. At the age of 18 I moved to New York and unfortunately communication with the Burney family (that side) was lost. I'm now living in North Carolina. Again, sorry for your lost. I know the emotions one experiences at the passing of a mother. I also hope Roy, Jr., is fairing well. I welcome it, if you choose to reach out. God's blessings
I'm truly sorry to hear of the passing of aunt Eleanor. I remember meeting her and uncle Roy's children at my dad's funeral. It's sad that families loose touch. God be with Eleanor in her eternal rest and be with the family, including Roy jr and Becky. Look me up
The Burney family and friends, I am sorry for your loss, and keep em' in their prayers at that difficult time.
Mrs Burney was one of the nicest people I've ever met.
I can't find the words to express how sorry I am about the transition of your love one. She was a lifetime friend and will truly, truly be missed. Rest easy friend. You loved flowers so, I know you will keep His garden looking beautiful at all times ! ❤️❤️
