Hello,
My name is Lynn Burdine. I am the grand-daughter of Lucy Marshall Burdine and daughter of Robert Thomas Burdine/Sherryl Towery.
Lucy just passed away, this past Saturday,March 29th at the age of 89. She was living in Detroit, Michigan. She is going to be buried in Logans Chapel Cemetary next to her late husband, Ben.

I noticed an error, my younger brothers name is actually Robert Timothy Burdine, the site had his first and middle name mixed up.

Thanks,
Lynn
