TORONTO�Canadian actress Jackie Burroughs, perhaps best remembered as
the eccentric �Hetty� King in the Emmy award winning TV series �Road to
Avonlea,� died at her home here Wednesday, Sept. 22. She had been

mom, Emmaline Ozmondo Fingal, in the movie featured in episode 822-

�Mom, �m I nuts?� She was 71.
