Kathy was also a big encouragement to me after the unexpected death of my precious baby boy, Patrolman Lane Burns. She loved him and was proud of him, because he was my child and because he proudly protected the community of her beloved city of Bonne Terre, Mo. He was killed doing that very thing. Little did we know that she would go to be with Jesus a little over 14 months after that.
Kathy was loved by us and she will not be forgotten by the Burns family!
God has you in his keeping
I have you in my heart
