Stanton W. L. Blennerhassett
1935-2019
Passed away at home, going to be with his precious Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ. He was pre-deceased by his parents Walter G. Blennerhassett and Florence (Crowe) Blennerhassett.
Living all his life on Finchley Road (Hampstead, QC), he travelled frequently to the Maritimes where he was a faithful supporter and leader of the gospel tent work. His true character was that of a servant of the Lord, devoting his life to sharing the Good News of Jesus Christ, caring for the less fortunate, and mentoring young Christians, whom he encouraged to continue in the Word of God : the 4 pillars-- "... building yourselves up on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Spirit, keeping yourselves in the love of God, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life (Jude 20-21).
Over his life, he enjoyed his family times at Rawdon, skiing in the Laurentians, holiday times with his Blennerhassett cousins, and particularly the fellowship of his brethren in the assembly gathered at Montreal and elsewhere. For a number of years, he taught at Howard S. Billings High School in Chateauguay, QC. Many of us admired his penchant for stylish cars and were pleased to have the odd chance to ride along.
A committal service will be held at the Walter and Florence Blennerhassett graveside in Mount Royal Cemetery on Monday, July 29 at 11:30am followed by a light lunch and reception at the Mount Royal Funeral Complex on the grounds of the cemetery. All are welcome at both. Anyone joining the service should gather at the gates to the cemetery (1297 Chemin de la Forêt, Outremont, QC) at 11:15am to be lead to the grave site.
A memorial service will take place on August 25, at 2:30 p.m., at Newman Place Hall (5375 Newman Place, Montreal, H3X 1E8, near Decarie and Van Horne)
Absent from the body – present with the Lord!
