My sympathy to all those who knew and loved Bob. I pray that the closeness that his passing has brought the family will remain.
I'm sorry Michelle.. You were a great daughter to him, and you took such good care of him..I'm sure you will be richly rewarded for your compassion and loyalty. God Bless the whole Blanke family.

There's an open gate at the end of the road, in which each must go alone. There in a light we cannot see, Our Father claims His own. Beyond this gate, your father finds happiness, and rest. Let there be comfort in this thought..that a Loving Father knows best! (Unknown) With sympathy Carl and Ruby Burns

To the Blanke Family. I extend to all of you my deepest sympathy. I have known Bob for some 20 plus years. Bob was a special man. He made me belly laugh listening to his story's mostly about his life. He always seem to keep in touch with me. Bob sold all his painting equipment to me many years ago and worked with me washing glass. He made washing windows and climbing ladders an adventure. Working with Bob was so much fun. I never laughed so hard in my life. I will miss your funny stories Bob. You lived your life the way you wanted too. I have a profound respect for you. You will be missed my brother. Rest in Peace Bob.

I remember wadding the creak at Quiver River Park Bob, Judy & Michelle. I remember Bob & Judy coming to our house on Thankgiving and arriving just in time to put out the Turkey which caught on fire. Bob was a fireman at the time. - Jean McCullough
