In Loving Memory of Burma L. Subrize

Beloved Mother, Grandmother, Great-Grandmother, Sister, and Friend

Burma L. Subrize, affectionately known as “Mimi” and “Meme” to her grandchildren and great-grandchildren, passed away on June 23, 2025, at the age of 84. She was a longtime resident of Toms River, New Jersey.

She was preceded in death by her parents, William and Alma Whesper, and her brother, Ronald Whesper.

Burma is survived by her beloved brothers Terry, Gilbert, John, and Ralph; her children Bonnie, Robbie, and Theresa; her stepdaughter Lucia; her grandchildren Kerri, Brian, Kyle, Chris, Robbie, Giovanni, and Conner; and her cherished great-grandchildren Nia, Luca, Miles, Nolan and Hunter.

One of six siblings, Burma had a strong faith and an even stronger presence. Her heart was as big as her personality—warm, giving, and endlessly selfless. She was involved in her community, proudly serving as a member of the Neighborhood Watch and worked to keep her neighborhood safe and connected. Her dedication made her a valued and respected member of the community.

She devoted much of her time to her family and helping others.

Burma touched countless lives and was deeply loved by all who knew her. Her passing leaves a profound emptiness in the hearts of her family and friends, but her legacy of love, strength, and generosity will live on forever.
