James Roddy Blake - Sitio Web Conmemorativo En Línea

I was about 13 or 14 at the time. My father and I had gone over to my grandfathers house to shovel out his car after a big snow storm. All of a sudden my dad falls face first into the snow. I start yelling "Dad are you OK? Did you fall?" Then I notice his hand was on his chest. Oh no did he have a heart attack. I was screaming. I rolled him over almost in tears and thats when I saw my fathers big smile and laugh on his face !!

I miss his endless phone calls.. and all his stories about every single person he ever knew and his days in the service cooking for this one and that one.. miss him and his stories immensley and love him lots too.  I miss his big heart and his very stubborn attitude.. I miss his stories about Jimmy II and Jodi.. I am glad that if we can't have him..at least he is with his son. I miss how he said QuiAnna...lol. I even miss his ballbusting remarks.. I really could go on and on.. and I am sure I will think of specific stories and be back to write about them... Thanks Jodi.. good job.. love, "Papa's girlfriend"... lol... j/k Judy.. lol

I remember your dad and my dad arguing about Red Sox and Yankees about who is better....they would argue for hours on the phone and the conversation would get so heated, when they finally hung up my dad would say friggen Jimmy always has to argue then he would say "I am not talking to him on the phone anymore, then the next day they would be right back talking to each other and have the same arguement...lol

And by the way thanks alot for making me cry too...lol just kidding this is nice :)

Wow there are so many memories I have of my dad.  He was the best father in the world. I know how greatful I was to have a father like him and so many people had wished he was there fathers.
 

I willl ocasionaly keep adding memories so I don't lump them all into one big page.
 

One memory I have is him singing. If you said a word the next thing you know he would make a song about it. It it could be any word.  He was always singing. Some of his favorite songs to sing were "Daddies little Girl",  "You are so beautiful", which he always sang to our dog Sara.  "First time ever I saw your face" dedicated to the most beautiful girl in his school he nicked named "the face", My Way.  And so many many more.

So many good memories of Jim, best husband, friend and lover.... Miss you so much Honey, wish so many days I was with you....I remember one talk before you went in to the hospital, you said i would be remarried within 2 yrs. well it is past that now, I don't want to date let alone get married, I still want you. McKayla asked me this weekend when did I get married because I had a ring on, she has been asking alot of questions about you...she wants to know if you come and sleep with me sometime, I wish I would let you talk all night....the best prank you pulled on me was when you and Jodi dressed up a scarcecrow and put it in my driver seat I thought it was a man good thing I did't call the cops they would of shot out my windows....Thank you for 31 years, but I wish we had many more..Love you more Judy
