I cannot believe Blair has gone on the his rewards. My heart and prayers go out to Jan, Dick and the rest of his siblings. Blair and Dick were with me through my husband’s illness and passing and I will always be thankful for their love and concern. I will miss Blair and his phone calls. Rest in peace my brother and much love to Jan. We will meet again one day.

I didn’t get as much time with Blair as I wanted, but one day I was with him in his tool shop long enough to hear some of his vivid stories. I won’t forget it and will always wish I had more time with him. He leaves one great family filled with love and he will be missed.

Jan and Family, Our hearts are so heavy in hearing of the passing of our dear Blair. He was such a part of our youth. Even though he moved away from Brookville to pursue his adult life, the closeness was always there to us. I am so thankful that you and Blair had made it back to Brookville several years ago and we were able to spend such a wonderful, blessed day together with you, Blair, Dick and Sandy. That day will always be so precious to us.
As children, our families spent so much time together. Memories that will always be held close to our hearts.
Our prayers are with all of you while the adjustment of his loss takes place.
With All Our Love, Joe, Matt, Mary Ella, John, Julia Ann, Elizabeth, Madalyn, and Donnie. “The Nellie (Vandervort) Zellonis family.
