Jan Elise Burgess Obituary

We are sad to announce that, on February 12, 2026 we had to say goodbye to Jan Elise Burgess in Burton, Michigan. You can send your sympathy in the guestbook provided and share it with the family.

As we bid farewell to this luminous soul, let her loved ones carry forward the torch of her memory, illuminating the path ahead with the warmth of her love and the brilliance of her spirit. Though Jan may journey beyond the horizon of our sight, her essence remains woven into the very fabric of our being — a guiding light in the darkness, a beacon of hope in the night.

She is survived by: her husband Kearby; her son Jon North (Beverly); her granddaughter Athena; her daughter Sherry Mockles (David); her granddaughter Mia (Enzo); and her sweet pugs, Bob, Ed, Arnold and Lucy. She is also survived by her family, friends, neighbors.

Memorial contributions may be made to LaVigne Home for Compassionate Care, The Foundation Fighting Blindness, or the Michigan Pug Rescue, "Pug Love".
