Blane, I miss you so much. I miss how you always listened so well and always gave great advice. I was thinking of you today and the song "wish you were here" by Incubus came on at that very moment. I wish I would have told you how dear to me you were, I guess you never know till someone is not around any longer, I know you are in a better place and thank you for being a part of my life, if only being there a short time as a coworker and a friend:) love you Blane! RIP

Blane was a dear dear friend of mine. I taught him to scuba dive, and made many trips with him to Catalina island teaching diving. I also made 3trips to japan, 2 with my son, when he lived there in the 90s. I've lost touch with him the last few years. I am so very saddened that this sweet, beautiful, sensitive soul has left us. Blane, I miss you!

Go with God old friend! I have fond memories of you from high school. You have fought the good fight, you finished the race. Enter now into the kingdom of heaven.
