Blanche Preston was a woman of deep faith and boundless love. She carried the light of the Lord in her heart, radiating kindness and grace to all who knew her. Her family was her greatest joy, and she poured her soul into nurturing and cherishing them. As a mother and grandmother, she held each moment sacred, weaving laughter, wisdom, and warmth into the lives of those she held dear. Her love was steadfast, unwavering, a reflection of the faith that guided her. Though she has departed this life, her spirit lingers in the hearts of her children and grandchildren, in every prayer whispered, every embrace shared, and every lesson she imparted. Anchorage, Alaska, was blessed to be her home, and now heaven welcomes her. She has left behind not only memories but a legacy of love-one that will echo through generations, a testament to the beautiful life she lived. Blanche Preston's journey on this earth has ended, but her light, her love, and her faith will never fade.
Services will be held at New Hope Baptist Church, 333 Price Street, Anchorage, AK 99508, at 11:00 a.m. Live streaming will be available on the church's Facebook page.
