Elaine and I, and the Owingsville First Church of God are uplifting the Blevins Family through this time. Henry’s sister, Donna, and so many of the Blevins Family have been a wonderful part of the church here in Owingsville and have contributed so much to the work of the Kingdom of God over the years. In the times that I met Henry I found him to be a man of good character, great integrity and sound faith. He was loved, his life mattered and he will be missed. May God grant you comfort and peace and healing from your grief through this time. I hope to see many of you at Henry’s funeral.
