In Memoriam: Ms. Ann McCreary Burns (January 30, 1934 - March 11, 2005)
Wednesday, September 5, 2012 at 06:49PM The family of Ms. Ann McCreary Burns informed us that Ann passed away on March 11, 2005 at home in Encinitas, CA. She passed very peacefully and in a manner befitting the way she lived life--surrounded by family and friends. Many of us in Peace Corps know Ms. Ann McCreary Burns as the wife of Jack Burns who was on Peace Corps/India staff in the late 60s. Ann was a tremendous support to the young and no-so-young Peace Corps Volunteers serving at that time.
After leaving India in 1970 she and her family moved to Boston, MA. And then to Cleveland Heights, OH where Ann began a career in real estate.
In 1981, the family relocated to San Diego, CA where Ann continued her career in real estate and began a second career in residential interior design. She remained in contact with many of her India friends over the years.

I am so sorry to hear of the loss of Mrs. Burns...I knew her when she was in India. I was only there for one year; however, her daughter Jackie and I were very good friends. I would like to reconnect with Jackie and was hoping to be able to contact her through this posting.
