We did not know you, but we are privileged to have your grand daugther, Heather Whittington Blackburn, in our family.
She is a wonderful, loving, smart, caring, beautiful, and accomplished young woman. Her smile fills any room with sunshine.
Thank you for giving our son a loving wife and us a cherished daughter.
Our prayers for you and for your family.

She is and will always be remembered as a loving aunt and friend to all. she always had a smile and welcoming heart to all she met.
When I am gone release me,
Let me go,
I have so many things to see and do
you mustn't tie yourself to me with tears
Be happy that we had so many beautiful years
I gave to you my love
you can only guess how much you gave me in happiness
I thank you for the love each have shown
But now it's time I travel alone
So grieve a while for me, if grieve you must
Then let your grief be comforted by my trust
It's only for awhile that we must part
So bless the memories within your heart
I won't be far away,for life goes on
So if you need me, call and I will come
Though you can't see or touch me, I'll be near
and if you listen within your heart you'll hear
All my love around you soft and clear.
And then when you must come this way alone
I'll greet you with a smile and say "welcome Home". (unknown author)
We will alway's remember you in our heart, we love you so,
