Just received message Uncle Nick was having a service. Not informed of funeral service. We live in Illinois on a farm,. Unable to get someone to watch our animals on short notice. Trying to send flowers for the service as we speak… 🙁 to represent our family THE BURNS FAMILY. John-Paula-Brandon and Cody. Uncle Nick was THE GREATEST UNCLE EVER (besides Uncle Rodger!! 🙂 They were pranksters and they locked my Dad out of the church when my Mom Jean Volkmar was to marry my Dad!! It was so funny! They were so funny! He in deed had an awesome smile and sense of humour and loyalty to family!! His love for his devoted wife Nancy is like a EVER AFTER story!!! The PERFECT couple! Prayer and hugs and kisses are being sent to the family. Steve, Kim, Ginger we are so sorry for the loss of your Father.He will be SO sorely missed. Love you all…..
