to combine her commitment to church and home with a love of fun and laughter.
Above all else, the greatest love of her life was her family. She was
preceded in death by her husband of 50 years, Floyd Douglas Blount and
thirteen brothers and sisters. She is survived by three children, Douglas R.
Blount, Wayne E. Blount, both of Roanoke, Carol B. Spencer, of Lynchburg;
eight grandchildren; and five great-grandchildren. Funeral services will be
