She had been a member of the Junior Woman’s Club, several book clubs, the Golden Kiwanis Club for Seniors, and Women’s Missionary Union. She enjoyed playing tennis for many years and playing in several bridge clubs with her friends. She was blessed with so many friends and family that she enjoyed so much—mountain trips, beach trips, game nights, dancing, shopping, cards, and “porch” talks. Aggie was preceded in death by her parents, her husband, “Tweet”, her sisters Louise Burney Bracey and her husband, Roy Lee, Ruth Burney Berry and her husband, “Red”, her brother David “DG” Burney and his wife, Edna, and her niece Linda Bracey Pearce.

She so adored her numerous nieces: Jackie, Sha, Suzanne, Lee Anne, Julie, Melanie, Lara and their families. The family wishes to thank her wonderful caregivers that she had throughout the years…Gloria Bernard, Sandra Hodge, Pam Williams, Shelia Powell, and Linda Parker. They were her angels on earth. Also, thank you to the many friends that showed their love and support to her and the family. Memorials may be made to HeartlandHospiceFund.org/Donate
