My thoughts and prayers are with her family. She touch many lives along the way and she will be missed. A great resident of Richfield to take care of.

Patsy and Family,
I know I did not get to visit as much with all of you, like I would had wanted to by living out of state, but Great Aunt Blanche was one of my favorites. I still remember visiting her out at Craigs Creek and everyone getting together. She always liked to feed you when you came to her home and I will miss that homemade pound cake. She is an Angel and I know she is not suffering anymore. She is at peace in Heaven and you will always have so many wonderful memories of her time on earth with you. My deepest sympathy to you all.
Love ya,
Robin and Todd Dehner

Dear Patsy & Family:

I am so sorry for your loss. I'm thankful Rip and I were able to stop and see your mom on our way back from being home during Christmas. I'm sure she is at peace now. I remember our calling her one of the Golden Girls (she, Lottie, and Hazel). Now there is a Golden Girl in Heaven. There with our Granny and my mom. They are probably all sitting around playing Scrabble seeing who can out-spell the other. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

Renee (& Family)~

Our thoughts are with you and your family at this most difficult time. Please know that I'm praying for you all.

Ms. Blanche was a very special lady and loved by everyone who knew her. Please know that we share in your grief and extend our deepest sympathy.

She was a kind and gentle woman and I feel so fortunate to have known her. Your grandmother was blessed with so many wonderful experiences and a long and productive life.

No doubt the outpouring of sympathy you receive will be of some consolation, serving as a reminder of just how loved she was.

I hope that you and your family will find peace and comfort in knowing that her suffering is over. I believe mothers/grandmothers are just one of God's greatest blessings, and she was certainly no exception. I know that it seems like a sad ending, but I have faith that Ms. Blanche is on a wondrous journey to reap her rewards. Hers was a blessed life and the happiness that she brought will live on in her memory.

May God bless you and your family! If there is anything that I can do, please call on me. With Love,

Monica (& Lauren)

Patsy & Family,
Blanche was always a grandmother to me, Deb and my family. She was the greatest person, always welcomed us with such warmth and kindness. For every visit to Roanoke, a trip to see Blanche and doing lunch was a treat. Know she is in a wonderful mansion now but it still hurts to know she is gone.

Love, Debby, Wayne, Chris and Christian Reynolds, Kim, Mike, Michael and Grace Lippman, Kelli, Peter, Samantha, Jennifer and Dontay Budhu

Our family has one less light now that Blanche has gone on to a better place. She was one of the strongest, gentless women I ever had the pleasure of calling family. She taught me so many things about life and how to live it. I only hope in some small way I was able to measure up in her eyes. She will enjoy seeing all of her family and friends now in heaven without the pain and struggles she was facing here on earth. We all loved her so much such a dear dear woman
