Deborah Marie Burns

December 22, 1952 — March 22, 2025

It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Deborah Marie Burns, affectionately known in her latter years as "Nunu". Deborah showed tender kindness and grace until her final breaths. She lived her life with a gentle humble spirit and unwavering faith in the goodness of God and His majesty. Preceded in death by husband, Charles Ray "Butch" Burns, and parents William David and Hazel Stout. Left to cherish her memory are daughters Erika Turner (Craig), and Brittany Greene (Matthew Brandon), her grandchildren Elliot, Preston and Amelia Green, Ciya, Ethan, Aleah, Alex, Keeya, Paige, Luke, and Landen Turner, and Asa and Norah Greene. Per Deborah's wishes, the family will have a private entombment at Grandview Cemetery. Smith Funeral and Cremation Service, Maryville, 865-983-1000, www.SmithFuneralandCremation.com.
