Dusty was born July 5, 1930 in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma to Dewey and De'Lois Kirk. Dusty met and married the love of her life Richard Stephen Burwinkel on April 2, 1965.
Steve preceded her in death in 2014.
Dusty was a devoted Navy wife and followed Steve on his many assignments while they made Pensacola their home. For many years Dusty worked civil service at the many duty stations.
Her life was a living example of her favorite Bible verse, Ephesians 4:32 "And be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving one another, just as God forgave you in Christ".
Dusty is survived by her brother Kenneth Daniel Kirk and many nieces and nephews.
