Dear Eloise,

We were saddened to hear of Bob's passing. Wishing you and your family peace to bring comfort, courage to face the days ahead and loving memories to forever hold in your hearts.

My sincere thoughts are with you at this time & want to thank you, his family, for sharing his time, energy, assistance,knowledge,encouragement and kindness with others throughout his life. I met Bob 49 years ago ( 1st auto loan at age 17) have been in this area all my life including a career in financial services dealing with banks & other financial institutions as clients, and have never heard anyone say anything derogatory about Bob Blankenship. So I encourage you to cherish great...

I met Bob in the late 1950's, when I was Collection Mgr. for State Planters Bank in Richmond. He and I made a trip to NC to repossess farm equipment, a trip I will never forget. He could be funnier than a comedian and I will always remember his wit. He was just a very nice person to know. My condolences to his family.

So sorry Eloise, have been coming to see "Blow" and you for years. I guess we'll have to have our meeting in the Hereafter!
He and I had some great times and I cherish those memories.
