Obituary

Mary K. Burke, nee Lamb, age 92 of Riverside. Beloved wife of the late Robert Burke. Loving mother of Kathy Clarke, Sue (the late Bill) Sherman, Mary Jo (Tom) McCloskey and Peg Burke. Fun and funny Gram and spectator of all sporting events of Katy, John (Anna), Robert, Joe and Tim Clarke, Ryan (Tia) Sherman, Kevin (Carly) Sherman, Kelly (Peter) Lyson, Dan (Shannon) McCloskey, Maggie (Andy) Bax, and Molly McCloskey. Great Grandma to Maeva Clayshulte, Jack Clarke, Tessa, Bryce, Tori, Jake, Brody, and Riley Sherman, Madison and Emma Lyson and Payton McCloskey. Cousin and friend of Mary Grube Hill and aunt to Jim and Chuck Laing. If you lived in Riverside, you surely saw Mary walking everywhere. One of her favorite destinations was the Riverside Swim Club, where she held court with family and friends and worked on her perpetual tan for over 55 years. Her pastimes included walking to the mall to shop, her twice weekly hair appointments, and decorating for every season. Mary never met a dance floor she didn't like and could be heard singing New York New York or Celebration at every wedding. She was a tiny person with a big personality and will be forever missed. Services are private. Memorials in Mary's memory to a charity of your choice appreciated. Arrangements entrusted to the Original Kuratko Family – Brian D. Kuratko, Funeral Director.
