The only way to take sorrow out of death is to take love out of life." – R. Nelson
Today we say goodbye to a man who loved life; who truly loved his neighbors and brothers. Tim gave selflessly his sweat and often tears ensuring his community was safe. Today he left his armor at Station 3 to put on the armor of God.
Timothy Gale Blake, 48, of Calvin, WV, went home to be with the Lord on Wednesday, December 27, 2017, after heart attack.

In addition to his mother, he was preceded in death by his paternal grandparents, Gayle and Dolly Blake; maternal grandparents, Burt and Frenchie Silman; and aunt and uncle, Sonya and husband, Raymond Chapman.
