Dear Weakley Family
Kathy was a school mate at Culpeper HS in 1955-56. When I think of "Kathy" I see her smiling face and remember her kinkness to me as I came in the middle of my sophmore year, not knowing anyone there. She was a lovely young lady who realized a good career and made many friends. God bless each of you with His comfort.
Fondly

Kim and family, your mother was a wonderful, kind, and thoughtful woman and great to have as a neighbor and friend. I enjoyed many phone conversations with her over the years. She was always so interested in what was happening in my life and always asked about my kids. She was very appreciative of them when they helped her with a chore. We also talked a great deal about her family. She was a very dedicated mother and grandmother and spoke with much love about each and every one of you. She will be sadly missed on the block and in our hearts. Please let me know if I can do anything.

Dear Kim & Bart and all of your family:
Your family has been intertwined with the Blanton family since you guys were very small. We will never think of you as anything but part of the Blanton clan. Your mother was more like a sister than lifelong friend and she will be remembered and loved forever. My heart is broken and I wish I could be there with you both. I know in my soul that she is looking down on all of us and keeping you both in her heart until the day we are all reunited. May God's love surround you and lift you up during the days to come.
All my love,

While words cannot take away your loss, please accept our sincerest condolences on the loss of Kathy. She will be sorely missed. I remember the last conversation I had with her at Earl's birthday party. She was telling me how important her children and grandchildren were to her. She had wonderful things to say about them and she loved you all so very much. Hold tight to your memories for comfort, lean on your friends for strength, and always remember how much you are cared about. God be with you all during this difficult time.
