In Celebration of

Mildred Josephine Burns (Nee Melenchuk)

October 22, 1934 -  February 6, 2021

It is with sadness that we share the news of our mother’s passing, Saturday, February 6, 2021 at Credit Valley Hospital, Mississauga, at age 86. Beloved wife of Robert “Boak” for 59 years. Loving mother of Kenneth (Beth) of New Brunswick, and Karen (Gary) of Ontario. Cherished nanny of Scott (Laura), Brian (Molly), Kylee, and Kristen. Much adored great grandma of Elle. Milly will be remembered for her shared love of curling with Bob where they spent almost three decades playing at the Boulevard Club in Toronto. Milly will be best remembered for her love of the cottage, where she spent almost 40 years on the Severn River. Spending every summer there was where she enjoyed friends and family the most. We hope to celebrate mom’s life with family and friends at a later date.

For those who wish, donations may be made to Alzheimers Society in lieu of flowers.

Don and I along with our with family were fortunate to enjoy many good times with Millie, Bob and family at our cottages together on Coulter Bay. Fun times over dinners, cards, boating, etc., all the fun things that go on when cottaging together. Millie was a wonderful lady, friend, mother and grandmother. She will be missed.
