To all of Blake's friends of the internet --

Because we are not "computerized" we have asked our sweet Stephanie to
post this note to all of you.

Our family (Mom - Dad - Sister) wants to sincerely thank you all for
the wonderful and soothing messages you have sent regarding our much
loved son Blake. The messages of sympathy, love and admiration have
gone a long way to ease the pain and grief we feel. You have shown
us a whole different side of Blake. We knew he spent lots of time on
the net but never realized how many good, long time friends he made in
those hours. We have always been extremely proud of Blake and the
way he handled the good and not-so-good events in his life. And I'm
sure that the great friends like you helped him to weather those
storms.

We love him dearly--miss him terribly--and he will always be in our
hearts. Thank you all for making it easier to take.

(Mom) Dorothy (Dad) John (Sister) Kerry

Blake was "cool" before "cool" was "cool"!--From a letter to Blake's
family.
