Not sure what to say?

I well recall young Blake as my shipmate in icebreaker USSS Edisto in Boston. I attended his first marriage there. We last spoke about 1990 during a ship reunion.

I always remember Blake as my fine Navy shipmate in USS Edisto Island in 1960.May he est in peace.

To all of Blake's family--I am so sorry for your loss. I just learned of his passing today from friends.

In storms, Blake was calm and unafraid. A kind and gentle man.May he find peace.

Sincere condolences to Dorothy and extended family for your profound loss. With regards, Barbara Marie Hyduk Mishkin.

Sending many prayers & much sympathy. Dr. Cady was the first supervisor I had when I came to RI in 2001. He was such a gentleman and always very professional and kind. He was absolutely brilliant and enjoyed explaining cases and teaching. I can´t imagine the hold he leaves in everyone´s lives.

One proud moment: here he is as president of the Mass. Chapter of the American Cancer Society in 1992 with Candace Pierce, celebrating the hard work of so many to pass a cigarette tax to fund health education. He is missed so very much. Thank you for sharing your thoughts & memories.
