May 1, 1925 - February 11, 2015

Rosemary passed away February 11th, 2015 at Boca Ciega Rehab Center, Gulfport,

Florida. She had been a resident there for 3 1/2 years...and made many new

friends during this time.

She was the widow of William H. Burns who passed away in 2005.

Rosemary was born May 1, 1925 in Toledo Ohio. She was the daughter of John

Kwiatkowski and Florence(Kropaczewski) She had one sister Virginia(Jean)

Zurawski.

Rosemary was a fan of anything Betty Boop. She enjoyed crocheting afghans and

in recent years was an avid reader of large print novels. Her best attribute

was her humor and being the "life of the party". She kept journals for almost

20 years and if you knew Rosemary you have probably been included in those

pages someplace.

William and Rosemary moved to Florida in 2000 to be near family and to enjoy

her growing number of Great-Grandchildren.

She spent many years playing school, teaching ABC's and 123's and creating

playdoh characters with them.
