LUCIEN BLAIS July 15, 1936 - November 28, 1991 You are deeply missed, but there is not a day that goes by that you are not thought about by one or all of us. Many people have come and gone through our lives that we wish you were here to meet and give your usual warning to them not to hurt us. We know you are still watching over us, and we can still hear your words telling us you have made your bed, you have to sleep in it and we know that meant that we can figure out what we really want and need to do by ourselves, and you will still be there for us no matter what we did. There are so many times that we miss your smile, your laughter, and your hugs when we need it. After 20 years, those things are still in our minds and never forgotten about. You have always been a Free Spirit, and taught us everything from A - Z that you figured we needed to know to survive in life. Even these days when we have a problem, we just sit back and think, "What would Dad tell us" and it always seems to come to mind exactly what you would have told us. We would like to "Thank You" for everything that you taught us and are still teaching us everyday. Even though you are not here in body, your spirit and knowledge is always with us. We couldn't have asked for anyone better. From all of your children, grandchildren, everyone that knew you and people that wish they knew you.
