Dr. Blake was my dentist throughout childhood. He was a wonderful person and a great dentist. When I had my wisdom teeth out, he referred me to a surgeon, and made sure to call that evening to make sure I was okay. Blessings on you, sir, and your family, as well

I am Carolyn's 2nd cousin and I know they are together now in Glory. I just remember seeing them together was I was a child and teen and they were a sweet couple. I know the loss is hard and I am thinking and praying for all of the family.

Don and I grew up together in Garland in the fifties and were especially close friends and friendly competitors during junior high and high school. Even though our friendship had been reduced over the last fifty years to brief conversations at high school reunions, I never lost my great respect for his high personal standards and my admiration for his youthful looks and spirit. I will miss him.
