Jade Burns passed away unexpectedly on Saturday, March 14, 2026. She was 27 years old with an unwavering zest for life, and her unique spark would light up the darkest room. She was born in Centralia on January 4, 1999, the daughter of Tami Biagi and Daniel Burns II.
Jade is survived by her mother, father, her stepfather, Raymond Meyers, Jr., and her grandparents, Mike & Amber Biagi. She leaves behind so many loving family members, including three siblings: Megan Conder, Maci Wood, and Macin Wood; aunts and uncles: Chris Biagi, Adam Biagi (Molly), Kaitlyn Biagi (Nick Prunty), Julie Buonincontro (Lenny), and Tim Burns. She will be missed by many other family members and friends, with special regard to her cousins: Kloie Biagi and Vincenzo Buonincontro, both of whom she held so close to her heart.
She was preceded in death by her grandparents, Daniel Burns I, Judy Burns, and Mamie Wickliffe, along with her ‘bonus’ grandparent: Carol Juday, whose memories she held close to her heart throughout her life.
Jade exhibited a remarkable ability to be kind in all aspects of her life, and, armed with her infectious laughter and hilarious, captivating personality, she was unapologetically comfortable being her true self while many amazing friends gravitated to her with open arms and admiration.
Jade’s passing has left a void in the hearts of everyone who had the privilege to know her. Her exuberant spirit and unwavering loyalty to her loved ones will be remembered fondly.
