No words can express our deepest sympathy for your loss. Our thoughts are with you and your family in this time. Blanton, or as my grandfather and I knew him as Buzz, was a truly wonderful man. I will always remember my visits with you and him with much fondness.

Aunt Myrtle, Linwood and Alvin,
My thoughts are full of happy memories of Uncle Blanton, You, Mom, Dad, Grandma Barfoot and all the happy family get togethers over the years. I wish I could be there in person to let you know how much you are all in my thoughts and how lucky I feel to have been born into such a terrific family. I pray that God and beautiful memories give you strength though this difficult time.

Much Love,
Alma
