Obituary

Funeral Services for Viva Shea Burk, age 76, of Cleburne, Texas will be conducted at 2PM on Friday, February 20th, 2026 at Rosser Funeral Home Chapel with Brother Landon Wink officiating.

Viva Burk passed away Tuesday, February 17th, 2026, at her home, surrounded by her family.

She was born in Cleburne on September 19th, 1949, to Clota (Lightsey) and Franklin Grey Robinson.

Viva married her loving husband, Larry Thomas Burk, on April 4th, 1982, in Covington, Texas.

She was preceded in death by her parents: brothers, Steve and Richard Robinson: and sister, Elwyn Flatt.

As her name correctly suggests, she was a woman "full of life", bringing joy to all those that came around her. She is remembered by her loved ones for her witty sense of humor, gentle kindness, thoughtful resourcefulness, and her love for her Savior, Jesus Christ. Viva was an artist, a lover of jewelry, colorful dishware, a good deal, and a good time. But she is most remembered for her role as a faithful wife, loving mother, and cherished "Meme" to her many grandchildren.

Viva is survived by her beloved husband of 43 years, Larry Burk of Cleburne, Texas; daughter, Donna Kyle and husband, Jason, also of Cleburne, Jolè Matthews and husband, Clint, of Burleson, Texas, Amberly Hausenfluck of Mt. Enterprise, Texas; bonus daughter, Christie Gray of Tennessee; brother, Fairris Wicker and wife, Sharon, of Cleburne; 12 grandchildren; 18 great grandchildren; one great-great grandchild; and many other family members and friends.
