Due to the current healthcare guidelines, there will be a private graveside service at the Laurel Cemetery in Laurel, Nebraska with Rev. Isaac Chua officiating. Arrangements are under the direction of the Wintz Funeral Home in Laurel, Nebraska. A public memorial service will be planned for a future date to be determined.

Virginia Jane “Tiny” Burns was born on July 19, 1932 in Belden, Nebraska to Walter and Tillie (Griesel) Kint. She graduated from Laurel High School in 1950.

Tiny was a member of the Laurel United Methodist Church, VFW Auxiliary, and Order of Eastern Star. She taught Sunday school, belonged to the United Methodist Women, and was very active in the Laurel Senior Center. Tiny was an accomplished seamstress. She enjoyed playing cards, gardening, cooking, baking and going for family drives. She enjoyed her family, especially her grandchildren and great-grandchildren, and attended as many of their activities as possible. Tiny and Lowell were always the first to help anyone in need. She always made everyone feel so comfortable and welcome in her home, that it became the gathering place for many family events. Tiny was a devoted wife, loving mother, grandmother, great-grandmother and a friend to all. She was the heart of our home.
