Deepest sympathy to Blondina’s family. I wish I could of met Blondina, we sound alot alike. Always having an open ear and an open heart. Love to hunt, fish, gardening and the outdoors. I purchased Blondina’s home in Gladstone and love it, I wish I could get her famous raspberries going again. I remember as a child riding by and seeing her working in her raspberries. Always loved her place and was exstatic to be able to purchase it.
Keep her memories alive in your heart
God bless

Blon, You have been the most supportive, loyal, fun, and courageous friend. I treasure memories of happy 4th of July picnics, resolving problems over morning coffee at your kitchen table, the international ones and the status of your rasberries ~ both equally profound, fishing from the bridge, dinners at the Log Cabin, at Jack’s, abundant laughter during your trip West: how you marveled at climbing through snowy mountains in the morning and wading in the Sound the same afternoon. I remember when you shoved Brandy at me during a critical night of my dad’s illness and you were right, it was therapeutic! I admire you for making tough decisions and following through with dignity ~ while being selfless in giving of yourself to others. I wish you peace.
Hugs, for the last time,

Aunt Bunny was an inspiration to me and too my children. I will miss her dearly. Kristen and Nicholas will never forget how many times she told the story of her and her friends getting caught by the cops for walking down the middle of the road late at night when she was a teenager.

I worked at Bishop until about 2 monthes ago, and Blondena was always a bright spot in my night as a CNA. I could laugh and joke with her. I will miss her.
