Obituary

MADISON - Ann Louise Burnett Andersen, age 98, of Madison, passed away on Wednesday, April 9, 2025, at SSM Health St. Mary's Care Center. She was born on May 5, 1926, in Fort Dodge, Iowa, the daughter of Harley and Myrtle (Essinger) Cunningham.


Ann graduated from Fort Dodge High School in 1944. She was married to James Burnett on June 19, 1948, and together they were blessed with four sons.


Ann was outgoing, independent, a hard worker, and a true people person. She would give back to others and was very thoughtful and kind - she never missed sending out birthday cards to her family and friends. Ann enjoyed bowling, bird watching and singing with the Webster City Sweet Adelines. She also taught line dancing. She had a great love for all of her grandchildren and great-grandchildren and treasured time spent with family and friends.


Ann is survived by her sons, Dave (Joni) Burnett and Steve (Linda) Burnett; and many grandchildren and great-grandchildren. She was preceded in death by two sons, Jim Burnett and Jon Burnett; parents, Myrtle and Harley; two sisters, Mary and Fran; four brothers, Ray, Bob, Bill and Manford; and husband, James Burnett.

My Aunt Ann was a hero. She cared for all, carried burdens for many and counseled us through rough times. A heart full of love, an infectious laugh and fabulous smile will be my memories of Ann. God bless the family with peace in their hearts, I think that's what she would want. Always Loved. Eileen & Bud Hopster
