Annie B and girls,
Benjie was a great father, husband and friend and will be missed by every one who knew him. I love you and am always here for you all.

Everyone: Thank you so very very much for all the little stories you shared, for the love you've shown... Benjie was my fishing buddy growing up, flying buddy later on after he got older, and a very very special person in all our lives. He will be missed.

I worked with Benjie many years ago when he was at Southern Rubber. After he left he would call or come by to see us from time to time. I could never come up with the words to comfort you, his family at this time but please know that I am just one of many that will never forget him.

I was fortunate enough to have known Benjie for almost 4 years. There was never a time at work when I saw him that he wouldn't ask those 2 questions I always knew I'd hear. "Fine and You"? and "How can I help you"? I am going to miss hearing that.
Benjie will be missed by all.

My deepest sympathy to Benjie's family. I remember going to the beach with Benjie in the summer of'78 in his "souped-up" Hornet with CB radio. We shared many fond memories. RIP, my friend. I'll see you on the other side.

I am sorry for your loss. Praying for peace and comfort in this difficult time. I worked with Benji and although I did not see him often when we did run in to each other he would always take time to talk and was always smiling.

To the Blankenship family, I was so saddened to hear of the loss of your loved one. I was June's 5th grade teacher at Colfax. Each time Mr. Blankenship came to school whether it was for an award's ceremony, class party, or to just visit, you could tell how much he loved his daughters. He was such a nice man and I know that he will be greatly missed! Having been through a tragic loss myself, I understand perfectly what you are going through and I can assure you that each day it will get better I promise! If you should need anything at all, even if it is an ear to listen, please do not hesitate in contacting me.
With My Deepest Sympathy,
Mrs. Jones

I am stunned to hear that my friend Benjie has passed.
I knew him when he still had hair and recently was reunited after several years at a friends wedding, Benjie was still the same fun freindly and proud guy I knew so many years ago.
I like so many others let our lives get separated and lose touch with people like Benjie when true friends are so hard to find. Even after so many years that I hate to admit he still was the same friend I remembered and had thought of from time to time.
Benjie will be missed in this world but I look forward to seeing him again later.

My prayers go out to the Blankenship family for their loss. I didn't know him personally, his daughter June attends Colfax Elem where I am employed. I remember him always coming to pick her up with a beautiful smile. I will continue to keep the family in my daily prayers and to the family continue to look to the hills for comfort because God loves you and so do I.

Words are must difficult to express to your family for the devastating loss of your love one Benjamin. God's word the Bible provides the greatest comfort all during this period of grief. Jesus outlined the resurrection hope for Benjamin that's found at John 5:28,29. These are comforting words to your family. The Bible also address the pain and grief that you fell. Psalms 34:18 states, "God is near those broken at heart and crushed in spirit". So rely on the God of all comfort Jehovah because "he himself will sustain you"(Psalms 55:22).
08/10/2011 - Hugh and Lynn Blankenship McAllister
We know your hearts are broken and want to express how deeply sorry we are. It's so hard to comprehend the sudden loss of someone as special and young as Benji, someone so dearly loved and loving...a husband, a father, a son, an uncle, a brother. Our hope is that this love, an everlasting connection, will lift you all up, hold you close and, in time, give you peace. You're in our hearts and in our prayers. Love, Hugh and Lynn

Such a sad time for so many people, to lose a life just beginning. Prayers being said for all of Benji's family and friends. I'll always remember those fun times when he drove Camero to take us places in Greensboro. May you be comforted by the memories.
08/09/2011 - Toby Allen Swaim
To Benji's daughters. No words can express my deepest sympathy and empathy for you both. Stay strong and be there for your mother. Your father was a wonderful man who touched the hearts of many. I know that from the stories my father had told me. If you need anything please let us know.
Anne
