Obituary: John William Burns, known to most of the world as Willie Burns, was born in Galveston, Texas on 3, 1935, to Eleanore and William John Bill Burns. He was their first and only child. Willie passed on to his heavenly father on , May 14, 2017, in Cypress, Texas.

Willie was always very proud of being a native son of Galveston and carried the BOI (born on the island) moniker throughout his life. He was schooled at Sacred Heart Cathedral School and Kirwin High School in Galveston, graduating in 1953. Before he attended his beloved University of Houston, Willie attended St. Edwards in Austin, Texas. He then transferred to U of H in the fall of 1954, where he met and married his love Marcia Beach. While at the University of Houston, he was a charter member of Tau Kappa Epsilon (TKE) fraternity, Director of Productions for Frontier Fiesta, and a leader in the business school. Willie graduated with a BBA in Management in May of 1958.

Willie was an exceptional Cougar supporter, and his love for the University of Houston continued throughout his life. He endowed scholarships for U of H football and a TKE Epsilon Omicron Chapter member each year. He served in many vital leadership roles in support of the Bauer of Business and the university, including the Board Chairman of the TKE Epsilon Omicron Chapter, Director of the Cougar Cookers, and President of the Taxi Squad. Willie also received numerous awards in recognition of his unwavering dedication to the University of Houston. Although he did not play football at U of H, he was asked to be a member of the Cougar Lettermans Club.

In 2008, he was recognized by the University of Houston with the Distinguished Service Award, one of the highest honors awarded to a University of Houston alumnus.

He was formerly a member of St. Cyril of Alexandria Catholic Church where he and his wife served in several leadership capacities and volunteered many hours. Willie was a perfect example of Gods love in the way he cared for and helped his children, family and others. Willie served as a baseball coach at Voss West Little League, basketball coach at Walnut Bend Recreation and also coached softball and football. Willie also loved to have fun and was an active member of the Krewe of Gambrinus in Galveston, Texas for many years.
