He was born in Western Shore, NS on November 1, 1949. He is survived by his loving wife of 36 years, Christine Boutilier.
Proud father to Gregory Boutilier (Stephanie Moore), Katelyn Edwards (Blake Edwards), and Sarah Snow (Cory). Adored Papa to Nolan, Jessie, and Brooklyn.
Blake is survived by brothers Archie (Lynne), Basil, and Melburne and sisters Agnus (Mackie), Holly (Boyd), Krista (Stuart), Karen, and Cheryl (Brad), as well as brother in law Thomas Boyce (Debbie) and niece, Lauren.
He was predeceased by his parents Minnie and Edward, his step-father Earl Manual and step-sister Donna.
At 72 years old, it was hard to keep Blake still. Blake was an avid outdoorsman, loving husband and father and Papa. Blake was always on the go, if he wasn’t out building or fixing something he could be found strolling the woods, defending his property from porcupines. Blake was a hard working, honest, loyal and loving friend. He would do anything for anyone and he treated everyone like family.
Blake will be deeply missed and forever in our hearts.
The family requests that everyone wears Blakes signature look to his Celebration of Life, jeans and a plaid shirt.
