LOSS OF A DEAR FRIEND
December 7, 2015
On behalf of Treetops Ski Patrol let me pass our deepest condolences to on the passing of our dear friend Mike Blanzy.  To say Mike was an important part of our patrol is an understatement.  He will always be remembered as a compassionate and dedicated patroller.  His love and generosity will be missed by all both on and off the hill.

The family will visit with friends from 3-7 p.m. Thursday, Dec. 10, at Gaylord Community Funeral Home & Cremation Service where a vigil and sharing time will begin at 7 p.m.

A Mass of Christian Burial will take place at 11 a.m. Friday, Dec. 11, from St. Mary Cathedral with the Rev. Tyler Bischoff officiating. The family will receive friends beginning at 10 a.m. Friday at the church.

Those who wish are asked to consider memorial contributions to the family, Barbara Blanzy through the funeral home, P.O. Box 249, Gaylord, MI 49734.

Please share your memories and personal messages with the family at Www.Gaylordfuneralhome.Com.
