IN LOVING MEMORY OF

Laura Ann
Burnam

Feb 24, 1962 — May 3, 2026

Obituary

Laura Ann McCully Burnam, a songbird sent to Earth, got here on February 24th, 1962 by way of her lovely mother June and father Wayne at their home in Fort Worth, Texas. Laura spent her formative years in multiple places as the family traveled for their father's job, before eventually settling into the North Richland Hills area. Laura took quickly to music and the creative arts and spent her entire life dedicated to bringing the next generation along with her in appreciation of it all, spending 16 years as Ben Milam Elementary's music teacher. A chance to hear her sing was something not to be taken for granted, and anyone who had the opportunity would be quick to let you know she had the voice of an angel. Her family tends to agree. Quick-witted, funny, and an ardent fan of the Texas Rangers, Laura will be remembered for all that she gave her family, her Church, and her students in Wichita Falls, Texas.  As a devoted follower of Jesus Christ, she glorified Him throughout her life.

Laura is survived by her beloved spouse Wendell, who loves her endlessly, her children Wendy, Jay and Charlie, and her grandchildren Liana, PJ, Micah, Nolan, Beck and Wyatt; her mother, June, her siblings Jere and Joni and their children Dylan, Mallory, Michael and Kristen, along with their families, Wendell's family; Randal, spouse Cathy, Jolene and spouse Richard, along with several loving nieces and nephews and grand nieces and nephews.
