Brenda Sue Blankenship, November 25, 1948 — February 14, 2023, Bolt, WV

Brenda Sue Blankenship, 74, went to be with the Lord on February 14, 2023. There she was reunited with her husband and valentine, Terry Dale Blankenship, her parents, Duke and Velma Blevins, her brothers Robert and Winston Blevins, and her sister, Mary Irvin.

Brenda was a homemaker that loved to cook and bake for her family and friends. She loved to dance and sing and had a sassy sense of humor. Everyone knew her as "Mama B ", because she truly was a mom to everyone. Brenda attended Grace Independent Baptist Church, where for years she organized the Ladies Auxiliary and loved her church family and helping the community with them. Brenda had an amazing laugh and always saw the best in people.

Brenda loved to have "porch talks" where many would gather on her long front porch and laugh and talk for hours, while her beloved furbaby, Teddy, would bounce from lap to lap. Many neighbors and friends couldn't wait for warmer weather to be able to start the porch talks with Mama B.

Brenda loved to cross off things on her bucket list, and usually did so with her big baby boy, Steve. Whether it was riding on an airplane for the first time or sticking her feet in the Gulf of Mexico, Brenda was along for the ride. Her beloved grandchildren would encourage her and make her try new foods and teach her about different cultures. She would then tell everyone she knew about the experiences and would look at those pictures and show them from time to time and smile.

Brenda leaves behind three children, Steve Blankenship, Nikki (Terri Jr) Blankenship, and Jamie Blankenship; a daughter in law/ extra daughter, Stephanie; four grandchildren, Ashley Blankenship, Haley Mayse, Kaitlin Blankenship, and Emma Blankenship; bonus grandson, Jake (Haley's husband); and three great grandchildren, Lily, Irelyn, Beckham (Hoss). She leaves behind many family and friends that will miss her greatly. For again, Brenda was a mom to everyone.

Her service will be officiated by her pastor, Benny Cozort, whom she had so much love and respect for beginning at 2pm Sunday, February 19th, 2023 at Calfee Funeral Home in Beckley, WV.

Rebecca Lynn (Timberlake) Blankenship, 70, went peacefully to her Heavenly home on Saturday, December 31, 2022, at the SOMC Hospice Center. She was born in Portsmouth, OH, on November 18, 1952, to the late Clarence and Ruby Cremeans Timberlake.

Rebecca was a 1970 graduate of McKell High School in South Shore, Kentucky, which she attended with Lawrence Blankenship, her high school sweetheart and love of her life. She was a homemaker and a preacher for over 40 years for the International Pentecostal Church of Christ (IPCC). She also enjoyed sewing, making quilts, and telling others of her faith in Christ. She was the pastor and a faithful and loving part of the Meade IPCC church, where she will be deeply missed by her church family. She was also a very loving and caring wife, mother, and grandmother, always willing to help and give to others without reservation.

Along with her parents she was preceded in death by her brother David Timberlake; and her sister Kaye (Timberlake) Conley.

Surviving are her husband of 52 years Lawrence Blankenship of Wheelersburg; her brother Tom Timberlake of Flatwoods; her brother Larry Timberlake of South Shore; her sister Louann (Timberlake) Adams of Wheelersburg; her daughters Lori (Jimmy) Nolan and Jennifer (Kevin) Hughes, both of Wheelersburg; three grandchildren, Tyler (Jordan) Shonkwiler, Nicole Hughes, and Nathan Hughes, all of Wheelersburg; and two soon-to-be-born great grandchildren, Colt and Crew Shonkwiler.

Funeral Services will be 12 pm, Wednesday, January 4, 2023 at Morton-Hunt Family Funeral Home in South Shore, Kentucky with Brother Dean Kouns officiating. Burial will follow at Kentucky Veterans Cemetery Northeast in Grayson, KY.
