Blanche, when I met you in my early 20's you were such an inspiration to me and taught me so much. You always had so much compassion for others and always had a kind heart. You were so fun to work with and a true friend. My love for cooking started with your recipes. You will be missed by so many.Danita
A great neighbor and friend. She will be missed and remembered fondly
We'll miss seeing Blanche on our trips to Tulsa. She was a wonderful lady and fun to be around. She was a real WWII "Veteran". May she rest in peace. Love, Noel & Winnie
Blanche was one in a million and will be dearly remembered by many people who knew her throughout the years.
Blanche, You were a dear friend. Different than most. Always in a good way. We met when I started working for you over six years ago. Going from housekeeper to friend. I looked forward to our visits, you knew many of my secrets. Its hard to know you are not here. I miss you tremendously.Other friends and family, please accept my condolences and prayers.
