David Blankenship was a fellow law enforcement officer, great friend, and one of the best people I came to know in the profession; and in the area around Houston, Texas. He will be greatly missed by all who knew him. David was a true credit to his chosen profession. It was my privilege to have known, and served my community along with David Blankenship. He was my friend; and he will be sorely missed. My thoughts and prayers are with Dorothy and David's entire family. Laus Deo (Praise be to God)

I have known David for a number of years. I never expected to hear from a friend that he had died. He will definitely be missed. He always had a smile on his face and was there to talk to anyone with a problem or someone that just wanted to talk. He always gave me my time of day. My family and I are praying for you and your family. We will miss seeing him and his smiling face around the neighborhood.

Dear Blankenship Family
I’m very sorry for your loss. The Pct 4 family will morn the loss of not only a friend but also great leader in this department. As a young Deputy with Pct 4 I was assigned as a deputy under his command. He taught me a great deal as a deputy but also as a person. He will always be remembered as a deputy’s supervisor and a great friend.
