Our family is in need of any help possible for the unexpected funural expenses and to be able to get him a headstone. The insurance did not cover all of the costs and has left us with much more to pay. Any amount would be so helpful and greatly appreciated.

Bobby was my father-in-law, but I loved that man as if he was my own daddy. He was the best dad and pawpaw anyone could ever ask for. He was such a sweet, caring and loving man. I do not ask for help often, but our family needs it. We are trying to find the best prices and possibly financing for a headstone.

~~~Bobby S. "Porky" Burney, 72, of Elgin Crossroads, died Thursday, Sept. 4, 2014, at Helen Keller Hospital. He was retired from Nichols Wire and a member of Happy Valley Baptist Church. He loved Alabama football, fishing and his number one priority in life was being the best Daddy and PawPaw in the world.

Bobby was preceded in death by his parents, James Wesley "Whiskey" and Susie Burney, brother, Freddie Joe Burney, sister, Barbara Cooner, wife, Clara Lavon Phillips Burney, granddaughters, Jamie Cromwell and Bailey Liles, son-in-law, Jerry Cromwell, and brother-in-law, Carlos Collins.
He is survived by his children, Melissa Killen, Michelle Burney Ash, who was his caregiver for 12 years, Lamanda Burney (Cody), Ben James Burney (Ashley), and Kelli Jo Burney; grandchildren, Jeremy, Adrianna, Kaleb, Kylie, Mackenzie, Bella, and Sailor; great-grandchildren, Noah and Gabby; sisters, Betty Graves (John), Ruth Gibson (Olis), and Carolyn Collins; former wife of 23 years, Joyce Butler (Arnold); dogs, Tiny and Shawnee; and tweety bird, Sunny.
The family would like to thank Dr. Aaron Karr, Dr. Paul Morris, Dr. Felix Morris, Dr. Robert Hunt, Dr.Charles Ferguson, nurses and staff of Helen Keller ICU, and Glenwood Rehabilitation, especially Lynn and Keller Hospice.
