She was born on September 21, 1934 in San Bernardo, Durango, Mexico, to parents Bernardo Bursiaga Sanchez and Maria Mercedes Garcia Carrion. She had many happy stories of growing up on their cattle ranch.
She was never still, always working, and it was often said she could outwork any man on any given day. She worked at Edward Hines Lumber in Burns, Oregon in the early 70’s and was the first and only female to have pulled green chain in the mill at that time. She also owned and operated a tavern in Burns, and owned several sets of apartment buildings that she managed herself.
In 1985, a fortuitous personal ad was placed in the “Ruralite” magazine connected her to Ray Wolfe of Hill City, Idaho, and they were wed in 1985.
She was preceded in death by her husband – Ray Wolfe; her children – Oscar and Ida; brothers – Barlo and Polo; and sister – Kika.
We take solace in the fact that she is whole and well again, and reunited with her loved ones.
