Margaret Isabel Burns, 84, entered into eternal rest on Saturday, March 17, 2018, at Valley Baptist Medical Center in Harlingen, Texas surrounded by her loving family.
Margaret was born in Brownsville but had lived in Raymondville on the Nopalito Ranch for the past 30 years. Margaret was a devout Catholic who had a strong devotion to the Blessed Mother. She was a loving and devoted mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother who enjoyed spending time with her family.
Margaret also enjoyed watching the Lifetime and Hallmark channels; going gambling; her standing hair appointment on Thursdays, and shopping on QVC. Margaret was deeply loved and will be profoundly missed not only by her family and friends but by all those fortunate enough to have known her.
Margaret is preceded in death by her husband Theodore “Ted” Marion Burns Jr.; her parents, Bertha Champion and J. Alex Garcia., and a brother, John A. Garcia.
Left to cherish her memory are her children: Sally Marie Burns, Cynthia Ann Milian, Theodore “Ted” Marion (Lori Ann) Burns III, Charles Edward “Chuck” (Lorraine) Burns, Mary Margaret (Greg) Klement, and Jennifer Lee (Ben) Biela. Margaret will also be missed by her 11 grandchildren and 5 great-grandchildren; along with a sister, Mary Bertha (William+) Mallet; her brother, J.A. (Sue Ann) Garcia and numerous nieces, nephews, friends, and extended family members.
Visitation will be from 5:30 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. on Monday, March 19th, 2018 at Darling Mouser Funeral Home with a Rosary service scheduled for 7:00 p.m. Monday evening. The Funeral Mass is scheduled for 10:00 a.m. on Tuesday, March 20, 2018, at Sacred Heart Catholic Church, 602 E. Elizabeth St. Committal services will follow the Mass at Buena Vista Burial Park. Margaret’s grandsons: Justin Milian, Theo Burns, Sonny Burns, Allen Klement, Dillon Burns, Braxton Biela, Zandon Biela and Trey Boylan are honored to be serving as pallbearers for their beloved grandmother.
In lieu of flowers, please consider a memorial gift in Margaret’s name to Sunshine Haven Hospice Facility, 7105 West Lakeside Blvd., Olmito, TX 78575.

Such sad news to hear of Margaret's passing. We have very fond memories of Margaret through the years of doing business with Amigo Power Equipment. The sharp business mind and the professional manner in which she handled herself will never be forgotten. Each of us are blessed to have known Margaret. Our love and prayers are with each of the family members.

Praying for all of you as you mourn the loss of your mother, grandmother, great-grandmother and sister. I loved Aunt Margaret and remember her teaching me to make Toll House Cookie bars. I have wonderful memories of spending time at youre house in Brownsville, doing homework at the dining room table, playing in the yard, Trick or Treating in the neighborhood, attending Little League games down the street, and of course, trips to the candy store. Your mom was an integral part of my childhood and I so enjoyed visiting her a few summers ago. She will be missed.
Love to all of you...you are in my thoughts.
Your cousin and niece, Julie

Our heartfelt condolences. We are lifting you up in prayer in the coming days, and will remember Margaret fondly. She certainly left her finger prints on this world. " And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away." Rev. 21:14. "My flesh and my heart faileth: but God is the strength of my heart, and my portion for ever." Psalm 73:26.
