You beat me to the Barn, ole Buddy. Catch up with you when I get there.

Dear Kenny, Bobby and Karen, I had the pleasure to running into your dad a couple of times in Niantic over the last few summers and I'm grateful for the jovial conversations with him. Fond memories go way back to the days we were neighbors in East Lyme.
Best to all of you, Craig Coleman

With sympathy in the loss of your loved one.

It was very sad to hear of Bob's passing. The passion for theater that I gained from my participation in Children's Theater has literally shaped my life. As a result of my work in Children's Theater, I went on to get a degree in technical production from the Art Institute of Fort Lauderdale and have worked with Summer Music in Waterford and the Garde Arts Center.

To the Blodgett Family;

I can't begin to express my deep appreciation for all that you have given to our community.

God Bless, and again, thank you for all that...

Karen, I am so sorry to hear of the loss of your Father. May you and your extended family find the strength you need to get through this most difficult time.

Dear Karen, Bob and Kenny,
I remember your Dad so very well! His happy, engaging fun spirit. I am so truly sorry to hear of his passing. My thoughts and prayers go out to you and your families. Sheila Gentilella-Coleman

One of the good guys God gave to us to make the world that much better. Always a gentlemen who had great wit, Mr. Blodgett always told it like it was. Some times he didn't have to say a word, you knew what he was thinking by his big smile. If you were a friend, he went a step further and made you feel like family. Rest in peace Sir, My thoughts and prayers are with everyone in his family
