I was so shocked to hear of Danas passing just so soon after Blakes passing! I wasn't able to go to Blakes funeral...even though I really wanted to. I was out of town. I used to go to school with both of them. Blake was in a class ahead of me, and Dana was in a class below me. Even with the differences, I got to know both of them very well and became good friends! I loved Dana. She always had a smile on her face and was always running around up to something. She was liked by so many people. I got married out of school and moved to the west coast..then moved back home in 1993. I haven't seen either Dana or Blake since school, but I often wondered what they were up to. I'm saddened to know that I will never get the chance to "run into them sometime" and see them now. My deepest condolences go out to the family for your losses. May God give you the comfort that you need to get through this very trying time!! God Bless.

I sit in shock at the news of Dana's death.
my heart hurts, my mind reels.
I had been thinking of her and praying for her well being, I knew she had been sick but never thought she would leave so young.
Dot and Blake you are in my prayers. I loved Dana.

Mrs. Jenkins, I am so sorry for the loss of Dana and Grant. We were neighbors on Rosewood Drive (1974-1976) and I have good memories of time spent with them. You are in my prayers and I trust the Holy Spirit is with you in these difficult times.
