Just wanted to send my condolences to Mr. & Mrs. Nelson, Carla, Jimmy, Chad, & the rest of the family. I grew up with Blaine in Guyan Estates. I remember many mornings going to the pool for swim practice. Blaine was always a fierce competitor as well as a great athlete. I'm sorry for your loss. Blaine will truly be missed.

Dear Nelsons,
So sorry to hear of your loss! I was Berkley's age but I remember the rest of the family from living close together in Guyan Estates. I was also in Scouts with Blaine.
May comfort be yours in abundance.

Remember being in Rosie Nichols' Sunday School class at 5th Avenue Church of God - later Trinity Church of God. We used to put butter cookies on our fingers and eat them under the table. My heartfelt condolences to the family.
