Blake Austin Dunlap

March 11th, 2012 | Posted by curryfuneralhome in Obituaries - (14 Comments)

On Wednesday, March 7, 2012, our precious child, Blake Austin Dunlap, was carried in the arms of angels home to his Heavenly Father.

He was a student at Lincoln County High School.

Through our tears and heartbreak, we remember his beautiful smile and dancing hazel eyes.

Blake was an avid motorcyclist, whom had mastered many trick stunts at a very early age. Often he used these skills, with a sheepish grin, to bring shrieks of concern from his beloved mamaw and aunts.

He was a true outdoorsman, who loved riding his four wheeler in Ivy Branch, camping, hunting and fishing with his papaw and best friends Elijah, Katy and cousin, Katlyn. He also loved to play the guitar and listen to music with his mom. Those who were blessed to share his life, knew him as kind and loving, willing to help anyone in need or share a warm embrace.

Blake was baptized at McCorkle Freewill Baptist Church. He loved God and proclaimed on his Facebook page that Jesus Christ inspired him most. His favorite verse was Proverbs 3:5, “Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not on thine own understanding.” In his short life of sixteen years, he accomplished what most strive many years for. Like Jesus commanded, he loved unconditionally.

He was a loving son to Leslie Dunlap of Sod and Darrin Tabor of South Charleston. A wonderful big brother to Addison Crowley of Logan and Austin Tabor of Sissonville. He was a light in the lives of his grandparents, John and Judy Dunlap of Sod, Sandy and Terry Ferrell of Madison and Ralph and Nancy Tabor of Foster. His many aunts and uncles adored him and his many cousins cherished him. He will be so missed by all his friends, including special friend, Kristi Lacy.

Funeral service will be 2:00 pm Monday, March 12, at Curry Funeral Home, 2097 Childress Road, Alum Creek with pastor Frank Chapman officiating. Burial will follow in Lively Cemetery. Family and friends will gather Sunday from 4 to 6 pm at the funeral home.
