Blanche "Meme" Cote will forever be remembered as a warm, kind, loving and strong minded individual. She is the Grandmother of my wife Kimberly LoBello, and the Great Grandmother of all of my children Seth Thomas Rice, Samantha Paulette Rice, Robert LoBello Jr., and Gianni Paul LoBello. Unfortunately, Gianni never had the opportunity to bask in the light that was Meme's life, but her memory is cherished in the hearts of the other 3. Meme came into my life and I will always be the better for having the times we shared together. Meme you have passed on into the loving arms of Jesus Christ. may he protect you always.

Blanche was my neighbor and loving friend for almost 50 years.
She was a wonderful lady. I will miss my daily trips over to visit her.
She was ready to join the lord and her beloved George. I will miss her smile and wit. Love you honey bunch as she called me when I left her last Tuesday.
