Ruth Wilcox Burgess Obituary

We are sad to announce that on January 16, 2025, at the age of 88, Ruth Wilcox Burgess (East Syracuse, New York), born in Manlius, New York passed away. Leave a sympathy message to the family on the memorial page of Ruth Wilcox Burgess to pay them a last tribute.

As we bid farewell to this luminous soul, let her loved ones carry forward the torch of her memory, illuminating the path ahead with the warmth of her love and the brilliance of her spirit. Though Ruth may journey beyond the horizon of our sight, her essence remains woven into the very fabric of our being — a guiding light in the darkness, a beacon of hope in the night.

She was predeceased by: her husband Volney; and her sons, Volney Paul (Donna) and Bryan. She is survived by: her children, Robin of Manlius and Todd (Judy) of Phoenix; and her grandchildren, Jeremy, Virginia, Jonathon and Lucia. She is also survived by her family and many friends.

In lieu of flowers, please consider donating to remove a leaning tree threatening her family plot and establish a bench she has wanted for a long time to honor her brothers and sister.
