EMILY LUCILLE COLE BURNS passed away peacefully at 105 years old on Tuesday Nov. 21, 2017. Daughter, Bettie, survives her along with her five grandchildren, eight great-grandchildren, niece Barbie Gilbert Wise and two nephews. She is preceded in death by her husband of over 60 years, Everett Hale Burns and her son James Ewart Burns. She loved Jesus, her family and her friends. It's comforting to know that she's in heaven with them and sitting with Jesus helping Him run Heaven. A celebration of her life will be at Highland Valley Methodist Church in Little Rock on Jan. 6, 2018, at 1 p.m. with an Angel Food cake reception to follow. Please no flowers; contribution can be made in her name to Highland Valley Methodist Church. To express condolences and sign the online guestbook, visit www.griffinleggetthealeyroth.com.
