Their son? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Pitooey · 12-31-2001, 01:13 AM

What ever became of their son? He use to be on the show. This was a great show and I loved Gracie.........

jayman75 · 04-07-2002, 01:52 PM

From what I recall...

he was still living when George Burns died in 1996. I also seem to recall that he went into education... or maybe high school counseling. I don't really know.

What about the daughter, Sandra Burns? What happened to her?

And, weren't there grandchildren??

Sandra died of cancer. For years we were all told Gracie died of a heart problem she actually died from Hodgkins Disease,cancer of the lymph glands. The chemo weakened her heart. Son Ronnie was on one of the Burns and Allens boards talking about it.

jayman75 · 07-05-2003, 10:40 AM

No... Gracie dead of a heart disease. Ronnie was on "Larry King Live" last night (7-4-03) with friends of B&A, and the question was asked "How did Gracie die." He said her heart just exploded.

Sad situation...

Goodnight Gracie · 07-06-2003, 12:58 AM

I heard that for years too,I wonder why Ronnie would say other wise on the Gracie boards????????? If that was Ronnie.

Goodnight Gracie · 07-06-2003, 01:03 AM

You know it just hit me what you said Jayman75,Exploded!!!!! Good Lord!! I just love that gal,I hate to think she suffered at all.

Goodnight Gracie · 07-12-2003, 06:43 PM

Hi Jayman, Go to http://groups.yahoo.com/group/burns_..............The moderator there says Ronnie has been sending pictures of George,and Gracie. and said his mom died from Hodgkins disease. Ronnie apparently is still posting there. I found it interesting.

I just read Gracie , A Love Story and George said Gracie had angina. Now a days it's treatable. It just prgressively got worse.

Well, check this out:

http://www.cnn.com/TRANSCRIPTS/0307/04/lkl.00.html

This is a transcript of Larry King Live, with Ronnie Burns, that aired 7-4-03.

Here is part of it:

KING: When your mother died, she was how old?

R. BURNS: 58.

KING: Very young.

R. BURNS: Very, very young.

KING: Was it sudden?

R. BURNS: Yes. Well, in those days you had a bad heart there was very little they could do about it. Today you can do a lot. And nobody really knew how bad it was until towards the end. And he never knew.

KING: No, it was a shock?

R. BURNS: It was quite a shock. And her heart just exploded, it just -- it was terrible.

That seems pretty official to me. I will check out your group though and see what's up.

Goodnight Gracie · 07-13-2003, 10:56 PM

I saw Larry King that night. Still he said the opposite on another site. Confusing.

I am curious if it was really him.

Goodnight Gracie · 07-14-2003, 03:44 PM

That thought crossed my mind too.

jayman75 · 07-14-2003, 10:20 PM

I saw a post by him today... it was a hotmail account. That kind of surprises me. Plus, it's his name and Sandra's name. That seems kind of morbid... including his deceased sister's name in an email account???

I dunno

Goodnight Gracie · 07-14-2003, 10:52 PM

Yeah I agree, that seems a little much. Now I`m curious about the whole thing.
