I have fond memories of Blanche growing up. She was such a wonderful person and great to be around. Many found memories of Blanche and my mom Monna Jo helping with the 4-H club Mountaineers. Rest in peace tell mom HI for me.

Blanche was a good Christian woman who will be missed by many especially her children and grandchildren. She always had a smile for all who knew her. She and Bill faithfully attended church with their children and were both good stewards of God's wishes. She is done with her work here on earth and is now at peace in heaven. Prayers of comfort for her family and hugs (an extra big one for Eugene).

Blanche was so special to us. When we first attended Fellowship Bible Church, she was so welcoming to us. We looked forward to seeing her every Sunday. She was a woman after God's Own Heart. For her family, please know that she is rejoicing to be home in Heaven where she was always meant to be. Enjoying being with her Lord God and all those who have gone on home before her. May God's Love and His Peace and His Joy surround you and bring you comfort. Tom and Kathy Clevenger
Peace of mind is a call away. We’re here when you need us most.
