Gus Blanchard Denton

Candy. I don´t know if you remember me, but I remember Gus and you from my childhood at IPC. I remember Gus being kind to my mom (Jamie Cahill) and his smile, and I remember him laughing with you in the hallways of the church and calling us over to share the joy. I remember him helping us get my mom´s wheelchair on the ramp and my mom saying your name was candy bc you were sweet like candy. We remember the ways people made us feel. Gus is surely with my mom now In Heaven. May you be filled...

Christa and I had the opportunity to have our life's path cross with Gus and Candy on a cruise a few years ago. We immediately became friends. We spent numerous hours together dining and laughing. Christa already misses her dance partner. We will dearly miss his smile, wit, and welcoming manner.

Our deepest condolences to you Candy and the family , Mr Denton was a very sweet and generous person and will forever be in our hearts .My mother Archie Mae has been apart of your family for many years and we are truely gratefull for the love you both have shown her down through the years , may God continue to bless and cover you all

Candy, I will always remember how dear you and Gus were to my mother Cordelia. Thank you. Henry

Gus was as fine a person as our Creator ever put on this Earth. I was blessed to have known and worked with him.

Candy- Jim, Ashby, Charlie, and James and I are so sorry to hear this news. Gus was such a wonderful neighbor and friend to us in Highland Falls. We will always cherish the beautiful memories we have with him. Also that warm smile. Please know you and your family are in our thoughts and prayers. Sending you hugs from all of us . Another beautiful Angel is in heaven watching over all of us . Ann

This is very hard to absorb and harder to understand. Gus was my friend from Ole Miss college and Phi Delta days , later as the glue that held the NBC leadership together during the best of times ,especially during our major growth period. He was a solid business confidant, the best of family leaders, and wonderful friend of many .Gus will be missed.

I am so sorry for loss of Mr. Denton. We sat in front of he and Candy at church. Thoughts and prayers for the family.

Gus and Candy were always such thoughtful and friendly folks. I thoroughly enjoyed working with both of them in Highlands NC. Gus will be greatly missed. Blessings and prayers to Candy and the family. Fondly,
