Maurice C. Blanken Obituary

Oh my, I just realized I typed the wrong 'there'. Sometimes my fingers don't match what's in my head. Again, please accept my sympathies.

Hello. I just read of Mr. Blanken's passing in Rowan Today. Is this same Mr. Blanken who was the landlord at 424 Victoria Street? I lived their for 3 of my GSC years - 1983-86. I can still see him clear as day, occasionally chiding us for something or another! My condolences on your loss. Regards, Lorraine

I am sorry so for your loss. Please
accept my sincere condolences. I hope
you will find your strength and comfort in Jesus promises of the earthly
resurrection (Acts 24:15) and the renewed Paradise earth, where death will be
no more and no family will have to mourn the death of a loved one ever again (Revelation
21:3,4; Luke 23:43). May GOD (Psalms 83:18)
grant you peace and comfort now during this grievous time-Matthew 5:4.
