May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.

Master Sergeant (Retired) John Blanton (Top) taught ROTC at the Fort Valley State University in the 1970s. He made an indelible mark on my life and I will forever be indebted to him. Top is directly responsible for many of the glowing accomplishments I have obtained during my professional career! It would be a missed opportunity, if I failed to salute Mrs. Ellen Rose Marie Fisher Blanton as she reunites with Top! God's speed to her family members as they work through this time of sorrow!
