Rachel Claudine Blevins passed away at the age of 81 on November 29, 2005. Claudine will be remembered fondly: Sweet, unselfish and big-hearted; Vivacious, wise and witty; and a Christ-like witness, who turned a difficult childhood, into an extraordinary adulthood. If you met Claudine Blevins, you immediately loved her. Her priorities were simple. God, family and service to others. She was fiercely loyal to three devoted sons who loved her dearly. At 14, she met and fell in love with a lad named Dexter. The two married in an old-fashioned wedding as soon as he returned from the war. Words cannot adequately describe the loving bond Claudine and Dexter enjoyed for almost 60 years. Claudine was born November 12, 1924 in Hollywood, AR. She was the daughter of Claude and Pauline McDaniel. Claudine's mother died when she was four. She overcame a harsh home environment to excel in many areas and went on to become valedictorian at Prescott High School. She is survived by her husband Dexter; three sons, Paul and wife Tina, Bill and wife Marsha, and Dean and wife Sarah; sister, Floy Kimbrough of St. Simon, GA; grandchildren, Britney, Brandon, Erin, Wes, Chris, Ross and Carson. Services will be held Friday, December 2, 2005, at Bethel Baptist Church at 2:00 p.m. Reverand James Ehrlich will officiate. Interment will follow at Sunset Memorial Park in Norman. Family visitation will be from from 5-7pm, Thursday, December 1, 2005, at Havenbrook Funeral Home.
Lord Jesus Christ, by your own three days in the tomb, you hallowed the graves of all who believe in you and so made the grave a sign of hope that promises resurrection even as it claims our mortal bodies.
Grant that our sister may sleep here in peace until you awaken her to glory, for you are the resurrection and the life.
Trusting in God, we have prayed together for our sister and now we come to the last farewell. There is sadness in parting, but we take comfort in the hope that one day we shall see her again and enjoy her friendship. Although we will disperse in sorrow, the mercy of God will gather us together again in the joy of his kingdom. Therefore, let us console one another in the faith of Jesus Christ.
