Our hearts are broken, as we lost our husband and dad today in his battle with advanced lung disease.
Asking for help in this way is not something I am doing easily, however due to his failing health, he did not qualify for any kind of life insurance. We will only receive a small spousal benefit through my job and it may not be enough to cover his final expenses. During this very painful time, I also need to be able to afford living expenses and provide for Jacob and Josh without the worry of how to take care of our needs. If you are able without imposing a hardship upon yourself, I ask that you donate what you can toward these costs and share this fundraiser as well. We appreciate all the texts, calls and prayers we are receiving and I will post arrangements as soon as possible.
Sam Blackstock, 53 years young, known to his close family and friends as Butch was truly the love of my life and a hero to our sons in so many ways. He has left us far too soon and we ask for your continued prayers as we face the difficult days ahead.
