This memorial website was created in the memory of our loved one, Earl Blaine Dunlap who was born on July 1, 1968 and passed away on October 30, 2010. You will be remembered forever.
Another year has passed my Big Brother. It’s been 10 years now and it still hurts as if it just happened. I know you’re in a better place and I can’t be sad for that, because you’re no longer suffering. I’m just sad because you’re not here. Madison is now 11 and she always asks about you. She has such a big heart when it comes to hearing story’s about her uncle. She smiles and cry’s like you’ve always been here with us. I love you Brother and I miss you. ❤️
Miss you Brother. I know you were watching over me when I went through my Surgery a year ago. What I had was nothing compared to what you went through. I'm sorry you had to go through all that, it hurts knowing how you felt but how strong you were with it. I still remember what you said, Everything is going to be fine. You were right! Though I hurt and think about you and the memories, i know you're fine and that's what you meant. Everything is fine because you're in a better place and you're not hurting anymore. I'll keep your memory alive Brother, through me, forever! Love you Brother. Rest :)
Missing you everyday Brother. Especially today! I keep your memory alive and share a lot of childhood moments with MAdison. She gets sad because she wanted to know her Uncle! She’s grown so much and she’s a daddy’s girl for sure!
I miss you Brother. I wish I could hear your voice on the phone for just a few minutes to tell you that I miss and love you.
Rest easy Brother. ❤️❤️

I miss you terribly Madison asks about you all the time. She says, what was Uncle Blaine like? She get's sad because she wanted to know her Uncle
You would have been 51 on your birthday. You were taken to soon, but I know you're in a better place and you're feeling better than you've ever felt before. I can't help but to cry though, because I miss you..

I get these moments, often, where I’m either driving, working, sitting at home, out somewhere or just where ever, i think of about you. Tonight being 1 of those moments. I miss you Brother! I miss and love you so much that I still cry to this day!
7 yrs today Brother and it still hurts like it was just yesterday. I love and miss you Brother! Always and Forever!
Happy Birthday Brother! Mom and Greg were out to see you today, along with Denise. I'm visiting Dad and Susan and we certainly thought about you today.
Madison and I are camping out upstairs and she said, Happy Birthday Uncle Blaine. She asks about you quite a bit and wished she could have known you.
I miss you Brother. I want to hear your voice again. Some things you forget, like your voice, but I'll never forget about you.
Wish you were here but I know you're in a better place with no more worries or sickness.
Watch over our family up there and down here. I love you Brother!
RIP!

Mother's Day is Sunday. I posted a pic of You, me and mom :).
I wish I could hear your voice and talk to you. I'll never forget you, but its difficult to remember what your voice sounds like and I hate that. But I'll always have the memories that will keep you alive in my heart forever Brother. I miss you!

Was just laying here thinking about you Brother. I think about you all the time but when I'm about to goto sleep and it's really quiet here, I think about you.
I wish we could turn back time, but not for you to go through this again, but to be able to see you again and hear your voice. I try to remember what your voice sounds like, it hurts that I can't. But I'll never forget you because of that. Ill always have the memories of our great childhood!
Madison asks about you, asks what you were like. They're good bedtime stories for her when she here and helps me to talk about you to her, remembering the wonderful times.
I miss your Brother! But I also know you're in a better place than where you were going through what you were. Now you can rest and not worry about anything or feel the pain anymore. I know you don't want anyone else to feel the pain either, but I feel the pain because you are missed. You're my BIG BROTHER and always will be no matter where you are. I just wish I could hear your voice again and have a conversation with you.
I love and miss you Brother.

Happy Birthday..sending you Love from below. I was just over your Aunt Re's house and I looked up at a picture of you that she had on her shelf in her office and I thought how young and handsome you were with that blonde hair and blue eyes. I was sad only because you are missed so much from our world but I know you are happy and living a peaceful heavenly life and watching over everyone you touched
by your grace, your love and your kindness. I miss you. Barbara K.

"Blaino, It's so difficult to believe it's been 6 yrs. We have all the wonderful memories that no one can take away from us. One day, we'll all see each other again. We love you, Aunt Re & Randy, the D. Yank.
Still seems like yesterday Brother! So many times that i've wanted to pick up the phone and call you and just hear your voice, but can't.
I know you're in a better place. No more pain, no more suffering and no more worries, but I'll always miss you! God, what I wouldn't give to just talk to you for a few minutes, give you a hug and cry on your shoulder and tell you that I miss you and love you! You'll always be in my thoughts and live on through the memories that I have from when we were kids till the day God took you! i love you Brother!

Blaine, I know you are missed by everyone who loved and knew you. I can still see your beautiful face and smile and I know I miss it. Rest in Peace and tell your Big Daddy, Marsha, Lewis, Shannon and my Mom, Doris Sanders, that I loved them and miss them all very much.
Blaino, We know you're on Heaven with your big smile on your face & happy. It's sad that you're not with us & we missed you terribly but, you're with our other loved ones & that gives us comfort. I look at your pictures often & will always remember your wonderful times together.
We miss & love you so much, Aunt Re & Randy
We miss & love you so much, Aunt Re & Randy
Can't believe its been almost 5 yrs Brother and it still seems like yesterday. Madison said she was sending something up to Heaven for her Uncle Blaine. A note that said, she misses her Uncle Blaine and love's you very much. We definitely miss you Brother. Though I think about you all the time, there's some day's where I cry my eyes out. I had a great childhood, growing up with my Big Brother. Memories that will last a life time and stories to share with Sara, Austin and Madison. They will never forget you and neither will I. I will NEVER forget My Big Brother. I love you and miss you always!
Blaine, I was going thru my emails and I was reading some of your tributes. This made me think of you. You just had a Birthday on the same day your family laid your "Big Daddy" to rest. I know you both were rejoicing and hugging each other in Heaven. I miss your beautiful smile but now Big Daddy can enjoy that smile and is Happy too.
I love you cuz. Please take care of Mama, Shannan, Lewis and Big Daddy. All of us left behind keep all of you in our daily thoughts and prayers. We miss all of you so much but take comfort in the fact that you are all in heaven with each other free from pain and suffering. Happy birthday cuz....you are truly missed. I love your mama and brother and together we'll remember all of you always and forever you'll live in our hearts. <3
Happy Birthday Brother! Madison and I visited You today and Madison kept saying, that's my Uncle Blaine! She said she misses you very much, just like I do Brother. Words cannot describe on how much I miss you and love you. Being down in Georgia sure brought back some memories of when we were kids. Wishing at times we were again just so you'd be back here with us, but not to go through what you did that took you away. I love you Brother, take care of Big Daddy up there now that he's come to join you. I will think about you all, always! I love you Brother!
I wish I could turn back the clock before you got sick. Before a lot of things happened the way they did. I think about what I could have done to help and didn't. Just knowing what could have been done that could have changed the outcome. You'd probly be here today Brother.
I miss you Brother! I wish I could hear your voice, see your face and just talk to you. I love you Brother! I'm always thinking about you!
I miss you Brother! I wish I could hear your voice, see your face and just talk to you. I love you Brother! I'm always thinking about you!
The Holidays are difficult without you Brother. I have several Christmas wishes but 1 I wish could come true,is that have 5 minutes with you. To be able to hear your voice and just see you again and tell you how much i miss you and love you Brother! You're always missed and never forgotten Brother.
I love you Brother!
I love you Brother!
Blaine, I miss you more than words can say. I'd love to hug you & see your smiling face! I often think about all the great times we had!! We miss you & love you so much Blaino. RIP.. Aunt Re & Randy
I thought about you on October 30th as I was going thru my day. I had your Mom and Brother in my heart and mind knowing how much they missed you and how much we All miss your loving smile. Watch over your family and loved ones from Heaven and they will see you again.
It's been 4 years brother and there's not a day that goes by where I don't miss you and think about you. I miss you so much. Madison is growing up so quickly, along with Sara and Austin. I wish you were here to see them.
I love you brother and I miss you so much it hurts.
Rest in peace my brother and I'll always be thinking about you.
I love you brother and I miss you so much it hurts.

Thank you for serving in OUR Military Brother. You'll always be remembered for that on a day like this.
Most of all, you'll be remembered as MY BIG BROTHER that I miss and love so much. Rest in Peace my Brother and your memory will live forever with me.
I Love You!

I was sitting outside tonight, calm breeze, almost no breeze at all. Nothing but the silence of the night and the stars shining bright. I wonder which star is you Brother.
I miss you Brother, still and always. This is something I'll never get over, no matter how long it's been. You're missed always Brother, by so many, but especially by me. I love you Brother and I miss you!

No matter how many times I come and visit your memorial here Brother, I still shed tears. All I see is a picture and memories of you but I can't remember your voice. I don't want to forget it, but not being able to talk to you isn't easy. But I will never forget you even though I can't hear your voice, NEVER!
Today is Mother's Day. I know in your own way, you'll be wishing MOM a Happy Mother's Day. Whether it be through me or however you do it, I know she'll get that message.
I love you Brother! I miss you EVERYDAY. I wish you were here to see how the kids are growing. Madison know's she has an Uncle Blaine in heaven and she tells me to tell you that she loves you!
Rest Brother. You'll always be a thought of mine!

Crying cleanses the soul and believe me, I've done plenty of that brother.

It doesn't matter how long it has been Brother, I still miss you like it was yesterday. I see things on FB about loved one's that are sick and what they must be going through. I sure know what that felt like and I feel for families that have to go through losing a loved 1. No matter where I may be at in the world Brother, I will always leave a light on so you will know where I am. It will be my Angel Light. You'll know which light that is Brother. It's the light with all the Love and Tears that I have for you! I miss you Brother and I love you!
I miss you Brother, I know I say it all the time it seems like, but I really do. I miss my Big Brother and it doesn't get easier as time goes by either. There's not a day that goes by that I don't think about you. Whether I'm working, out somewhere or something that just triggers a thought of you. Something that I may see that will trigger a thought about you. We did a lot and had a lot. Now I miss you a lot! I love you Brother! Missing you!
Happy Thanksgiving Brother! I miss you. This is a day to thankful and i am thankful to have a brother like you. I have all these memories of when we were kids and everything we sharedand had together. I will always be thankful for the times we shared. I wish you were brother , its not the same without you. I love you and miss you! You will never be forgotten, you're my Big Brother!
It was my Birthday today Brother. I was thinking about you. I heard from all my family and friends. But I missed you! I know you said it in your own way, but to actually hear your voice would have been better. If I had 1 wish, I would wish you here for 1 minute, so that I could tell you that I love you and HUG you for that entire minute. Not let go until that minute was up. That would be a wish I would want to come TRUE.
Coming up on Thanksgiving Brother. I am thankful for all of my Family. I am thankful for having a Brother like you! I love you Brother! Madison say's she misses her Uncle Blaine. She is growing up so fast!

Blaine, it is hard to believe that it has been 3 years since you left this world as we know it, but I know you are in a much Happier Place at peace and no pain. You are truly missed and I miss that beautiful smile that you always gave to us all. Love you, Barbara
I remember the last moments with you Brother. Sitting in your bedroom, holding your hand and shaking my head as to how and why. I still do! Only God know's why. But I know you're in a better place rather than being in pain here. I would rather have the pain of missing you, than you being here going through what you did. I love you Brother and I miss you! ALWAYS!
Blaine, We miss you so bad! You always had a great attitude & fun loving personality. You definitely made a lasting impression on many people. We know you, Marsha, Louie, Shannan & other loved ones are in heaven having fun & no longer in pain. I miss you Blaino.
We love you!! Aunt Re & Randy
We love you!! Aunt Re & Randy
Coming up on 3 yrs Brother. Every year seems like just a day, but it doesn't get any easier. I wish I could hear your voice again and see you. I miss you so much! I love you so much Brother!
Not sure why GOD had to take you Brother. I'll never understand why but I do know its a part of life. Your's was cut to short and a lot was left behind, like Family and Friends. You were my Big Brother, still are my Big Brother. I wish you could have met Madison. She is growing up so fast. I love you Brother and I will never get over the fact you are gone! It's so hard!
I Miss You and Love You Brother! I've said it before and many more times to come. You'll never be forgotten and you'll always be missed. I think about you a lot and some days are better than others. There are plenty of times you weigh on my mind and I start crying because I think about the memories and realize you're not here.

Day by day I think of you,
How can all of this be true?
I can't believe you're really gone,
I still can't accept it,
Even after so long.
Just the thought of you makes me cry,
I never even got the chance to say goodbye.
Every picture, every letter,
I don't know if it will ever get better.
I always smell your familiar scent,
It makes me think of all of the times we've spent.

I sit here on the patio tonight Brother, I lean back and look up at the stars. I watch them twinkle and it feels as if they are getting closer. I think of you being up there somewhere looking down on me and smiling. So when I see the brightest star glowing, that is your smile I see. Telling me you hear my thoughts on how much I miss you and love you. It's not easy Brother, I miss you!
You know Brother, I sit here and I think how great it was when we were kids. We didn't think about the bad things in life or what could happen. What has happened with you is something I never thought would happen so soon in life. God took you to soon, but I know you feel better now up there and you're not hurting. I love you so much Brother and I miss you.
Happy Birthday Brother! I know you're in a better place and you are no longer hurting. I know how much I'm hurting with you not being here. I know I'll have all the great memories that will keep me going. But it will never be the same without you here. You will always be my big brother and I love you! Happy B-Day Brother. Maddy and I love you very much.
Winnie the Pooh said, “If there ever comes a day when we can't be together keep me in your heart, I'll stay there forever” ~ And that's where you are and always will be, Blaine......in my heart.....forever. "Happy Birthday" sweetheart and always know how much Greg and I love you and miss you.........Mom
You are very missed today Brother. Whether being missed as a Son, Father, Brother, Uncle and even a Grandpa that you were. You are missed by me as my Big Brother and Uncle of Madison. I wish you could see her today. She has grown so much and I do tell her about you all the time. She throws a prayer up to you every night she goes to bed. I love you Brother, I really miss you alot!
I have dreams of you often Brother. Dreams of the "Ormsby Village" house when were kids. All the things we did together out there even with our friends. I visit out there once and awhile, just to visit the memories. I know you are in a good place now with no problems or no worries anymore. But you are missed everyday and never will be forgotten. I love you Brother. Madison says Hi Uncle!

We miss you so Blaine!!
I speaking for Big Mama & Big Daddy, as well. We talk about Blaine & smile just remembering his handsome face & his caring sweet & wonderful personality. It's hard to believe that it's been one yr. since we've all lost our Blaine. We all wish we could turn back the clock & say or do alot more than what we did.
We miss you so much Blaine but, you're not suffering now. We know where you are & you're at peace.
Lots of Love & kisses from your Big Mama & Big Daddy, Cyree & Randy

I miss you so much brother.
Everything that we did when we were kids. The places we've been, the friends we had, the trips we've been on, just our childhood all together was great. I know we had some times when were kids, but we were kids and what kids dont. I dont ever remember fighting with you about nothing when we got older.
I loved it when we were kids though. Cedar Point trips. We got to take our friends. Family friends, John and Shane and just had a good time.
The Michigan trips from Kentucky. Always played games up at the college there, the 4 of us, John, shane, me and you! Its was always a great time.
The New years eve time and the Arnolds. The parents always went out and we stayed in and played football in the living room. I will never forget that!
Just so much in our life brother and I never thought something like this would happen the way it happend. Seeing you in the hospital while you were going through Kemo. Just seemed like everything was looking good and positive, because you kept it that way. But when reality struck in after seeing you when you got home, I knew it wasnt alright. But you still told me that it was. Just so much I should of told you and shared with you that day and night before you went back to hospital. Seem like you have a lot of time but in reality you dont. People dont think about that until something like this happens.
I will never forget you Brother. NEVER! I think about you all the time! You will always be my BIG BROTHER! I will see you again 1 day Brother. Until then I have to take care of things around here with my family and my kids! Sara is going through her stages of life like a typical soon to be teenager. Madison, she is Madison. Shes little miss independent, polite and when shes around daddy, a daddy's girl! I know you see her in your own way everyday, I just wish you could of been here in person.
Watch out for us Brother, Look over us! I know you are cause I know you are there.
I love you Brother!
Your little brother,
Brent
I remember arriving to your house waiting on you to get home from the doctor. I hadnt seen you for awhile but when I did, it definately wasnt you. We got you inside to sit you down and I didnt leave your side. We talked for a bit and you told me everything was going to fine. I wanted it to be fine, but I knew deep down it wasnt. You didnt complain about it at all to me. The whole family was there that night when you went back into the hospital. You were slowly fading and there was nothing I could do about it. I just had to sit there and watch you. I wish I had to talked to you more that night. I wish you got to see Madison more other than what you did. There was alot of things that I wished for but never acted on them. Everyone was by your side the next night. We were praying and I stayed there holding your hand as long as I could. You died that night, late, and Dad broke the news to me. I was upset and couldnt believe it. I didnt wanna believe it and I still dont. I thought praying would help, work, or do something. I feel like I was let down by that. I always told you I didnt want to be alone if something ever happend to Mom and Dad. It would be us and our kids growing up. Now its going to be me and my kids and your son. Its hard as hell not having you here Brother. I wanted to help you so bad with everything that you were going through and now I wish I was there alot more than what I was. I will never forget you as my BIG BROTHER. The times we shared, the place we have been as kids. So much in our childhood that I will remember about us that I will never forget.
Its unreal to me still Brother and it will be for a long time to come. I am going to miss you and feel the pain of missing you for even longer. I love you Brother and I cant say it enough.
