LETOURNEAU BURNS, Diane
1945 - 2025
Diane Michelle Burns (nee Letourneau) went to be with her Lord and Saviour on Tuesday, January 14, 2025, in her 80th year. The daughter of Roland and Jeanne (nee Carrier) Letourneau.
Born October 12, 1945, she was raised in North Hatley, Quebec. She loved the water, and no summer was complete without an annual trip to North Hatley to walk along the boardwalk and visit the store she worked at as a young girl.
She met her soulmate and future husband, Malcolm Cameron Burns, at a church function. They were married on July 29, 1967, and raised their 3 children on the family farm. Her Christian faith was very important to her, and she strived to reflect her Saviour in her daily life.
She loved flowers and enjoyed the beauty of God’s creation around her while sitting on her deck. She enjoyed tole painting, playing darts and travel to several countries and Canadian provinces.
She was diagnosed with ALS in 2022. She was an encouragement to people with her gentle smile and the genuine grace and courage she showed as her disease progressed. She could make people laugh but still let you know when you were out of line with a look.
Her husband Malcolm Burns, children Janice Burns Connell (James Connell), Cindy Burns, Jonathan Burns (Marie-Josee Dodier), grandsons Noah Burns and Zack Burns are left to mourn her as well as many extended family and friends.
We will miss her desperately but are comforted in knowing that she is with her Saviour who she loved so much.
We are so thankful for the assistance and kindness shown from the medical staff at the CHUS and CLSC. We are also thankful for all those who have prayed for her and our family throughout this ALS journey.
Funeral arrangements have been entrusted to Cass Funeral Homes. A Celebration of Life will be held at the Sawyerville Baptist Church on Sunday, January 19, 2025, at 2pm. A luncheon and visitation with the family will follow the service. Burial of ashes to take place at the Island Brook Cemetery at a later date.

We send you and your family our sincere sympathies, Diane will always be remembered for her warm and sincere personality, her faithfulness not only to the Lord, but also to her friends and family, she went through thick and thin times with her health issues, but always seemed to still be that ray of sunshine when she walked into a room. I consinsider myself so very lucky to have known her, she will never be forgotten, but I know that she has joined our Father in heaven , and now she has no more pain and is resting in peace and singing with the angels. We pray for you and your family, and may God give you the strength to get through this great loss. Sincere sympathies , Renald & Judy Bernier

Toute nos condoléances,.
C'est une grande perte une maman et une grand-maman.
Bon courage
Uncle Mac and family
Oh how I loved aunt Diane. I can honestly still hear her laughter. When our 3 kids were out in the barn doing chores with uncle Mac I was able to spend alone time with aunt Diane. She was such a proud mom and wife.
I remember taking Abbigail to a walk in clinic with an asthma exacerbation. Aunt Diane was my translator! I gave the wrong birth date for Abbigail and got a suspicious look from the receptionist. Aunt Diane assured them that I was indeed the child’s mother but that due to my anxiety over her asthmatic attack I misinformed them of her actual DOB!
Never forgotten and oh what a glorious party that is happening in Heaven.
Be assured of my prayers! Your grief is intense but there is that hope that I know you all are holding onto!
