David Blankenship Obituary

We are sad to announce that, on August 18, 2025 we had to say goodbye to David Blankenship of Vandalia, Illinois. You can send your sympathy in the guestbook provided and share it with the family.

In the sacred silence of farewell, David is released into the embrace of eternity, knowing that his light will continue to shine brightly in the tapestry of the lives of his loved ones. And as his memory is carried forward, may comfort be found in the knowledge that love is eternal, and that David's spirit lives on in the beauty that surrounds us.

He is survived by: his parents, Patricia Geraldine Blankenship (Willis) of Vandalia and Dale Blankenship; and his sister Debra Carroll of Vandalia. He is also survived by two nephews; a niece; extended family.
