Dennis & family, My deepest sympathy to you all for the loss of a wonderful woman. I am grateful and honored to have had the chance to get to know Blanche as a neighbor and friend for almost 10 yrs. I will miss our chats over the fence. Taking care of our flowers, and laughing at the goofy cats outside! Your love and caring for all animals is something we shared and I admired. Nursing the tiny kittens that were abandonded by the mother or left outside in the cold! You gave them a fighting chance, even if they all didn’t make it, you tried. Letting me know I’m not the only one who enjoyed a good cup of coffee late at night! Rest easy now friend. The birds were singing for you the other day.  Love & Miss You, Bonnie Keen

Blanche and my family were neighbors for many years. Angie and Beth were the same age and were involved in many of the same activities, so we spent a lot of time together. We moved away from Greenwood Ave. and we lost contact. She was one of the best friends I have ever had. She would do anything for you, she had a heart of gold. She was committed to her family and God. I am so happy that I can say she was my friend and she had a big impact on my life. She will truly be missed. Prayers to Denny, Beth and the family! Love, Kathy (Torres) Lazowski

Kaiser, family I feel so sad that Blanche has passed so suddenly. I remember her as a very sweet lady and very passionate about her family. I always saw a smile as she was always gracious to me and my family.  I feel bad that I can’t actually attend the ceremonies for her because of either work or personal medical reasons. I will remember you all in my prayers at this very difficult time for you all and of course Blance. I wish you peace and I know that any words I could say would not replace her. 
Love Bill and Lucy Bender💜💜

We are so sorry to hear of the passing of Blanche.  When I first met Blanche I was 9 years old and she was 18. I quickly developed a big crush on her. Through out the years she remained one of the most caring and nicest individual I ever met.  She will be greatly missed by all that knew her. 
Jack and Trudy Weaver
