Dear Cathy and family:
Dear Donna, Ronnie, Dale, Bobby:
Our hearts are grieving for the loss of this precious man...who meant so much to so many. There are no words to convey the deep personal feelings of disbelief and insurmountable grief.
As children in Porter Cove , we all played in each others yards with Blair and his siblings, exploring the land and the woods in childhood wonder. In later years, we enjoyed Blairs company once again, along with his lovely wife, Cathy. I am so very grateful for the past summer where Blair and I were able to share a memorable trip on his four wheeler, once again enjoying the land and the forests he adored.
I cherish that time as well as all the others. Blair dearly loved his family and friends and his broad smile and hearty laugh and generous warmth endeared us to him.
Blair... I know your parents were waiting with outstretched arms. I will miss you. The River and the land will miss you
Rest In Peace, dear cousin.

Dearest Cathy, Carrie Dawn, Grandchildren, and Families...
Dear Donna, Ronnie, Dale, Bobby, (Jerry) and Families...
Sharing in your great sorrow and loss...nothing could have prepared us for the loss of one of our dearest friends. We miss Blair more than words can say and there is a deep void in the hearts of all of his many friends, especially in the place he loved so much, his Porter Cove! We cherish the many happy times we spent with Blair (and Cathy) at our camp, the stories and the laughter... Blair,you of all people would want us all to carry on...and we will try to do so in your honor! Our hearts were lightened seeing your beloved grandsons, Nathaniel and Samuel come in to the camp...I am sure you were chuckling as Deverne shared many a fish or hunting tale about their Papa with them over lunch...It is not hard to imagine the Grand Reunion in Heaven with beloved Family...and we "can only imagine" the stories and laughter and hugs with your beloved Darren and Alden. XO
We love you, dear friend! RIP Ever remembered...Ever missed!

May God surround you Cousin Cathy and family with his undying love, may he wrap his arms around you and lift you up and give you peace and strength in the difficult days ahead. Love, Eva and Jerry

Dear Cathy and family,
There are no words to express the feelings I had when I got the word that Blair had passed. Blair was one of my oldest friends and I treasure the happy memories made. As a teenager, I can't remember a day that he wasn't in our home for whatever reason. His jokes and stories (and maybe a few tall tales to the newbies in the area) were great. The laugh that lit up his face. My mum and dad thought the world of him and his kindness to them was appreciated.
May you treasure the memories you have and know that Blair was loved by many and will never be forgotten.
Rest easy Blair and happy fishing. RIP
Susan
