Note, other parts of this article also appeared to have contained copy pasted text. Some of it was from Wikipedia itself, but not all. I have removed large chunks of this article which merely repeated information about her former students who have their own articles on Wikipedia. I also removed the the confusing section on the park renaming which (a) never happened and (b) was full of original research with no referencing whatsoever.

Note: I have also removed a lengthy and unencyclopedic autobiography of her grandson Klif Burton, unreferenced, and full of original research. Voceditenore (talk) 15:43, 26 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Problematic edits[edit]

Please do not use <br> in the formatting. The addition of it completely messed up the references. Please do not add commentary like "(more details needed)". This does not belong in the article. Commentary like this belongs here on the talk page. Voceditenore (talk) 16:56, 26 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
