Dora Burke
Fowlerville, Michigan
Her Legacy… Dora Jean (Johnson) Burke, 78, passed away March 13, 2026. She was born on July 6, 1947, in Detroit, Michigan to Albert Johnson and Louis (Cook) Burke. Dora met the love of her life, James Burke, 63 years ago. They were married on September 10, 1967. She will be remembered as a kind and family-oriented wife, mother, and grandmother. Dora loved traveling with her family, taking time to visit relatives for holidays and reunions, but also spending time visiting Disneyland and road-tripping with James and her daughters. She loved watching her kids play sports and spending time with them. Her love for her family also showed in her interest in genealogy. A very crafty and creative woman, Dora spent most of her free time creating beautiful pieces of handmade art. You could often find her carving, quilting, painting rocks, and cross-stitching.
