To the family. Losing someone who has being a part of your life for so many years must be very difficult. May it help to ease the hurt you feel now to know that others care and are thinking of you at this sad time. With deepest sympathy. (Psalms 61:3)

Never had the pleasure of meeting Blair, but looking at his picture, he seemed to live life to the full. To the family, although this is a difficult time, Almighty God can bring you through it as he promises at Prov. 3:5-6. God Bless.

Sincere condolences to Blairs family as well as his extended family at the HAG. My son and I drove all the way from Oakland a year ago just to eat there and were overwhelmed by the friendliness of Dr. Jon, the "Head" nurse and all the attending nurses. While not personally knowing Blair, it's easy to know what he was like based on the wonderful people who made our visit the experience of a lifetime.
