Memory of Mamaw

Mrs. Carolyn Jo Burriss
1940 - 2012 

Mamaw Burriss passed away on Monday, 11/19/2012. 

We were able to say our goodbyes, as we knew her time was approaching. 

She had good days, as well as the bad, her last few weeks.  She was in and out of the hospital, but was even able to return home for a short stay.  

Mamaw was buried on Wednesday at the Riddle Cemetery, where her mother and other family members rest. 

She will be missed by our family, but I am glad she is no longer suffering and can finally be at peace. 

You are my sunshine
My only sunshine
You make me happy
When the skies are grey
You'll never know dear
How much I love you
So please don't take
My sunshine
Away

The other night dear
As I lay sleeping
I dreamed I held you in my arms
When I awoke dear
I was mistaken
And I held
My head
And cried
