So sorry for the loss of your loved one ... Find comfort in knowing that he is no longer suffering and in pain. We never had the priveledge of meeting Wayne's dad, but heard a lot of awesome good stories about him ... We will all meet someday in that glorious kingdom of God. The Powell Family Martinsville, Va We are Faith Blankenships relatives and we love Wayne desrly. He is a good husband, father, brother, and I know he was an awesome dedicated son to his father, Melvin Sr. during his most difficult times. God bless the family as the days move forward.
