Boone County Democrat
May 7, 1914

W.H. Blanchard, for many years a well known resident of this city, and a popular machinist in the Northwestern shops, passed away at 9:00 o’clock Tuesday morning at his home, 1548 Sixth street. He had been suffering more or less with heart trouble during the winter, but his condition was not thought serious and his sudden death comes as a severe shock to his family and friends. During Monday night he was taken suddenly worse and sank rapidly until the end came. He is survived by his widow and several children, who have the sincere sympathy of a wide circle of friends in their sorrow. The funeral services were held from the home at 2:30 o’clock this, Thursday afternoon, conducted by the Rev. Geo. D. Crissman. Burial in East Linwood Park cemetery.
