Help with funeral costs for John Burns

It is with an extremely heavy heart that I announce the passing of my grandfather, John Edward Burns, in Virginia Beach, VA. He was 69 years old. Born in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, John was a navy veteran who was proud to serve his country. He was a follower of Christ who volunteered at St. Luke’s Church, an avid reader, golfer, gardener, and a proud grandfather of four. John was a kind, curious, and thoughtful person with an admirable sense of humor, known for his gregarious laugh and to slap his knee when something was particularly funny. He will be deeply missed.

John is survived by his wife, Pilar, his children, Juanita, Walter, and Phyllis, as well as his four grandchildren, Kiana, Kameron, Samantha, and Kaylie.

[Details on his burial will be released shortly, as well as a link to a digital vigil wall if you’d like to write him a message or share a memory.]

My family humbly asks for donations to help cover the mounting funeral costs. Anything would be sincerely appreciated. Thank you all.
