Annie Ethel Burns

Annie Ethel Burns, 81, of Rupert passed away Thursday, August 24, 2023. Annie was born February 20, 1942 at the family home in King Hill, Idaho. She was born to Sam and Ethel Owings. Annie lived in Rupert at the time of her death.
Mom and Dad spent most of their life raising and training horses. They loved to race horses. They had several chariot teams. They even had a little help from their son James. “In his younger days.” They received a little help from their grandson Nathan until his death in a car accident. Then it was Jacobs turn. They had several friends at the racetrack. If you had questions they usually had the answer. Mom loved everyone she met. She always greeted you with a smile and hello. Growing up I think we had just about every animal you could imagine. Mom and Dad were Custodians at Burley Highschool. She delivered newspapers for the S.I.P. They were groundskeepers at the Minidoka County Fair Grounds where we lived. Upon her death they resided east of Rupert.
She will be dearly missed by all who loved her.
Annie is proceeded in death by her parents, Sam and Ethel Owings and her siblings Rose Parry, Tom Owings, Charles Owings, William Owings, Eunice Bellegante, Bernice Severe. She is also proceeded in death by her grandson Nathan Jensen.
