Blanche loved life- she was a single mother and a very strong woman who was always smiling and who loved her family. She loved spending her time with her daughter Jamie Lee. Blanche was a hard worker- she worked for many years as a Nurses’ Aide at Auburn Life Center. She enjoyed being able to help people. She also loved gardening, playing softball, music and dancing. One of her famous quotes to recite was “Happy, Happy, Happy.” Blanche will be deeply missed by her family and friends, and anyone who knew her, “loved her.”
