Tommy Burns

Obituary of Tommy Burns, footballer, coach and manager; born 16 December, 1956, in Glasgow; died 15 May, 2008, in Glasgow, aged 51.

Summing-up Tommy Burns is easy – he was a true Christian gentleman; a devoted husband to Rosemary for 28 years; a proud and understanding father and grand- father; a man devoted to his church; a hard worker for charity – he stood for everything that is good in life.

Nobody in Scottish football had a bad word for Tam Burns. Scotland and Scottish football have lost a truly great man.
