Condolences
Mrs. Blinn, Thank you for your knowledge, wisdom and understanding.. You changed my life and encouraged our 4th grade class to research traditional values of Native Americans, specifically Lenape. You were always pleasant and patient with our class, some of us still speak of you today. Thank you again for helping me find my heritage, self etc. from your timeless lessons. May God Bless Your Family, Eternally
aunt ginny, you and uncle mahlon are together forever now with God. Christmas was always your favorite time of year while you were here. i miss you every time i see something cute with a bee on it. every time i open my sewing drawer i see the gift i didn;t finish in time to send you last Christmas. but i'm glad for the time we had and that you are in heaven now. i'll always love you.
I am a native Ocean County resident and grew up in Lakewood, NJ in the 60's. Mrs. Blinn was my 5th grade teacher around 1963. What a great role model and teacher she was, as I still remember all of the great mentors in my life. What is most interesting is that I am a teacher, and a member of Delta Kappa Gamma Zeta Chapter which she was also a member of. I have not seen her for years but remember her well as a role model and educator. I am proud to say that I was a student of Virgina Blinn's and someone who admired the teacher she was and the person she was. You were such a good person...may your journey be peaceful.

My deepest sympathy goes out to you,Virginis's family. This soft-spoken, kind and gental person will never be forgotten. She made a deep impression on all those who came in contact with her. I worked with Virginia and later took over her class when she retired.We would meet with other retired teachers for dinner and we would complain about our time at Clarke school. Virginia would never complain about anyone, but would come up with something nice to say. We'll all miss her at our dinners. May God open his arms and encircle her with His love. May she rest in peace.May your sadness at her loss be eased by knowing she was loved by the many people whose lives she touched.
