Dear Prayer Warriors,
It is with great sadness we tell you that Tony Blankley, for whom we requested prayers some time ago, passed away this weekend. He was beloved by so many and will be greatly missed. Please pray for the repose of his soul, and for the comfort, strength and peace of his family, friends and loved ones. Here is a link to a tribute from The Washington Times, for whom he worked as editorial page editor, among his countless other notable positions:
Thank you so much and God bless you and your families,
Teri & Michael
In Loving Memory
Almighty God, through the death of Your Son on the cross, You have overcome death for us. Through his burial and resurrection from the dead You have made the grave a holy place and restored us to eternal life. We pray for those who died believing in Jesus and are buried with him in the hope of rising again. God of the living and the dead, may those who faithfully believed in You on earth praise You for ever in the joy of heaven. We ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen.

Prayer of Solace
May Christ support us all the day long, till the shadows lengthen, and the evening comes, and the busy world is hushed, and the fever of life is over and our work is done. Then in his mercy may he give us a safe lodging, and holy rest and peace at the last.
Amen.

previous prayer request, from October, 2010:
Dear Prayer Warriors,
In July, Pamela Fleming requested prayers for her close friend's brother-in-law, Tony Blankley (popular political commentator), who was diagnosed with a very invasive esophageal & stomach cancer. He underwent several months of chemo in an effort to shrink a very large tumor before they could operate. He suffered complications of the chemo, a "leak," which caused a major infection in the hand through he received the treatment. Fortunately, his hand was saved and he finally is able to have the very serious operation early tomorrow morning in Washington D.C. We and Pamela ask that you please keep Tony and his family in your prayers for his successful surgery and complete recovery & healing. May Jesus, the divine physician, heal all of Tony's disease and return him to health, able to give thanks and praise to God our Almighty Father.
Thank you for your prayers and God bless you and your families,
Love & Peace,
Teri & Michael

Through Jesus Christ. Amen.
