Beth Anne Burniche (Mahnken) completed her journey through life on August 29, 2026. She is survived by her 9 year old son, Nathaniel, her husband of 19 years, James Burniche, her brother, Donald Lawrence (Larry) Mahnken, her sister-in-law Kelly Flavin, her parents, Joanne Shaw Mahnken and Donald Mahnken, her father-in-law Neil Hughes as well as an extended family of aunts, uncles and cousins whom she loved dearly.
She also leaves behind a legacy of compassion and joy. She spent her time making fond memories for her son and advocating for women's health issues and human rights. She mostly enjoyed spending time with her friends and especially her family, whether vacationing or spending a quiet night playing games at home.
We will miss her infectious smile, her giggle, her love of puns and her caring nature.
The pain is gone now. Rest in peace.
"Many women have done wonderful things, but you surpass them all.'
Proverbs 31:29
