Burnice was a loving and caring individual with an infectious laugh that could make even the grumpiest of individuals crack a smile. As a child, she was in the 4H Club, then later was also a Girl Scout leader and volunteered at Camp Columbus in Auburn, NY, for many years. She also taught Sunday school in both NJ and at St. Mark’s Lutheran Church in Baldwinsville, NY, and was a substitute teacher aide with Special Ed in both the Baldwinsville and Jordan Elbridge School Districts.

Burnice had a way of putting everyone at ease, often showing love through her amazing cooking and witty sense of humor. Burnice loved ceramics and arts and crafts, and in her later years, she enjoyed playing Trivia and Music Bingo at the Craic House Pub in Jordan, NY.
