I am just hearing about this so many months late. I am so sorry for your great loss! Your Mom was the BEST WOMAN & MOM!! I have been sick the past several years so I have been out of the loop. It makes me cry just hearing she is no longer on earth. I am praying for you all as I know how hard it is to not have your Mom with you!

She was my big sister and I will miss her. We had many good laughs together. I will never forget how wonderful she was to me when my baby  passed away she opened up her home to me and prayed with me everyday. I love her so much. To my nieces and nephews I love you all and I wish I could be there with you all but  know i am with you in spirit

Love, Auntie M


We are saddened to hear about Blanche but rejoice that she’s now with her Lord and Savior.  She was such a dear lady who always greeted with a smile and big hug.  We are blessed to have known her.  Our thoughts and prayers are with you all.   
Much love,
Phil & Sharon Price 

My thoughts are with the family. I know how hard this time is for you all. Knowing that your mom was a Christian brings me  joy. If you know the Lord  you will walk with her again. 
I pray you all find comfort in God’s arms. 

I always enjoyed seeing Blanche and talking with her. My favorite thing was Cathy’s face when I would talk to her mom. Blanche always smiled and had kind words. 

I know she will be missed. 

What such a  great women and mother. Loved life and was blessed to have such a loving family. She will always be in each of our hearts. She will be missed, but never forgotten. Was blessed to be a son in law.  Loved our talks and her guidance. May you rest on peace. 

This was one special  loving lady.  MA , as I called her, could sit for hours sharing family stories, always checking in on my grandkids. Remembering cute stories about them  she shared as we visited her.  They always left with a piece or two of candy. 

We’ve laughed, we’ve  cried, we shared so many stories.

I could and did pop in for a visit many times,  and was always greeted with “come on in girl”.  We could talk for hours, and I always left feeling loved.

MA, you are loved and will be missed. You left so many with a piece of your heart.  So thank you for letting me feel like a part of your family. 

SO…See you in heaven, can you  save me a seat, I love you.  

So many good memories I have of Blanch, especially when we would come to her house to play Bunco. She was always welcoming and smiling and made you feel so welcome to have come to her house. I’m so sorry she had to go through this hard time with her health but she is now smiling in Heaven and rejoicing with her loved ones and friends. Till we see each other again on streets of Gold.

Love and blessings to the family of this wonderful woman of God . She was a beautiful lady wife mother grand and great grandma b.  She was loved by all who knew her

So thankful that I got to spend so many hours with this beautiful human in my childhood. Her hugs were incomparable, but she could put you in your place when you deserved it too. Love you “Nana”. We may not be connected by blood but you were an extra grandma to me my whole childhood. Thank you for so many life lessons. 

My nana some know her as Blanche or as she often referred to herself Blanche Catherine in her later years. Nana was the one constant I could count on to always pray for me she never forgot my birthday and often reminded me of how I was born and she never did let me forget that we had a basket hound and it’s a  grand old fag. She was my biggest fan I was her Ashie she was always making jokes even in her last days she offered me her teeth they were free but second hand. Nana never had a problem telling anybody the truth she was always honest. And she always told me I loved you first just as my mom says to me and I say to my girls as well! I’m thankful for her faithfulness in Jesus how  she taught that anytime I need to I can talk to Jesus. Her faith in Jesus carried her through many times and trails but you would have never known she was going through anything she always had a smile on her face and a warm embrace. She taught me about John 3:16 Jeremiah 29:11 and also most importantly that Hebrew’s the coffee! No one deserved more than Nana to hear well done my good and faithful servant welcome home! My heart is saddened by her passing but I do rejoice in knowing I will see her again. And I’m thankful she’s in heaven with Pop Pop Angela Uncle Charlie Uncle Mike Grannie Grandma and Grandpa. I’m beyond blessed by the legacy she leaves behind in this world the matriarch to our family in now resting in the everlasting arms of the Lord. I love you so much Nana
