My Deepest Condolences to you Carol and the rest of the family.  I had the honor of getting to know Mr. Blubaugh while he was in Lancaster General Hospital back in the spring of 2009 on the 5 East floor.  He was a pleasure to take care of along with Carol who was just a few rooms away.  They even had a "pet" name for me Dot. 

Love,

Sherry Gassert

Dear Carol and family,
  We are so sorry to hear of your loss.  It must be especially hard during the holidays.  Our thoughts and our prayers are with you all as you get through the next few weeks and months.  Carol, you are a strong person and I know you have the inner strength to forge ahead, one day at a time.  May God bless you with much comfort as you reflect back on the many wonderful memories of the time spent together with Blaine.
With Much Sympathy and Care,

I was sadden to hear of Blaine's passing.I met him a while back when he was at Wilbur Chocolate.I'll never forget that day - we laughed like hell!. I never got to be a close friend to him, (he left Wilbur and except for seeing him at the grocery store on an occasion, I often thought about him and it always put a smile on my face). My thoughts and prayers are with you and I'll never forget the brief time I had the honor to know him.
