My sincerest condolences to the Blodgett Family. May the Hearer of Prayer be of comfort to you at this time. (Psalms 83:18)

In the lighting business I knew Henry from way back at Villa Lighting, the The Blodgett Lighthouse, and finally as a fix-it-up repair facility close to my home. He was always friendly and accommodating, and he was very proud of his family. When I last saw him, he had fixed a family heirloom lamp, and I remarked that in a way, he was an heirloom also. RIP, Hank, it was nice to know you. John M. Rolwing Charlevoix, MI
