Jean Louise Burt, 78, passed away peacefully in Fort Worth, TX, on September 25, 2020, after a courageous battle with Alzheimer’s Disease. She was born October 13, 1941, in Salt Lake City, Utah.
Jean married Charles Philip (Phil) Burt on June 25, 1961, and they raised their three daughters in Kansas, Iowa, and, finally, in Texas. Her favorite times were when her family was gathered together, and her wonderful meals were always enjoyed by all. She also enjoyed golfing with Phil and traveling when she was able; her favorite being a trip to the UK that she and Phil took with her sister, Arlene, and her husband before Arlene passed.
Jean also loved her work, most recently in the hotel business before she retired. She managed several properties and won several awards.
Jean is survived by her beloved husband, Phil; her three daughters, Sheri Vecera, Susan (Jonathan) Hyman, and Cynthia (John) Hill; her seven grandchildren, Nathan (Rebecca) Vecera, Camryn Vecera, Jacob Hyman, Abigail Hyman, Justin (Briana) Massie, Hunter Massie, Nicholas (Lexi) Massie; great-grandchildren, Skylar Massie and Everlee Massie; brother, Gregory (Toshimi) Stark. She will be missed by many other family members and friends as well.
She was preceded in death by her sister Arlene Kallas and her brother Robert Stark.
A celebration of Jean’s life will be scheduled at a later time when all of her beloved family are able to attend.
In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Alzheimer’s Association.

Jean was truly one of my best friends and the best mother in law ever. We spent too many happy occasions together to mention and she was the greatest grandmother to my children I could ever hope for. I’m sorry for the loss of your mother.

Grandma Jean is and always will be a great blessing in our lives! She’ll be missed, but definitely not forgotten. The pain we feel now will fade and great memories will remain for all of us. So blessed to have known her for the short amount of time that I did. Love y’all and we’re praying for comfort during this time for everyone. ❤️

Jean was always so encouraging and was always genuinely happy to see her family. It was difficult to watch such an amazing woman begin to fade away in her mind. She was still a beautiful soul all the way to the end and you could feel her love, even though she was in the condition she was in. I’m going to miss those hugs and seeing her big smile when we gathered as a family. Much love Jean and see you soon!
