Bringing Walter Burns Home...❤️

Walter Burns, Lifelong Yorkville resident, passed away last week while residing in Ireland  with his daughter Shannon. Walt’s last wishes were  to be transported back home to the USA and to be buried along side his wife, Annie Burns. Walter was very well known in the neighborhood and was a long  time union member of Local 580.  Everyone who knew Walt loved him! Walt was a true gentleman!  He was extremely  generous to those in need,  and had a beautiful kind heart with a laid back demeanor. Walt is a true Icon Of Yorkville, He is loved by many and will be missed by all! 

The reason for the GoFundme is to help Walt’s family with the exorbitant amount it cost to transport his remains back home to Yorkville. If possible please contribute whatever you can, no amount is to small to help.. Walt was the first to help or to contribute to those in the neighborhood  he knew were in need.. now it’s  our turn to show him the same love!!

To those who are able to make a donation, please do! For those who can’t, we ask that you  take a moment to send healing thoughts and prayers to Walt's family.  Thank you to all!! Godspeed Walt!! You are loved and missed by all!! Until we all meet again, you are forever in our hearts! ❤️☝

Arrangements for burial will be announced shortly...
