Blanche O. Headrick, 70, passed away Friday, Jan. 11, 2002.
Mrs. Headrick was born in the Smokey Mountains of Tennessee and had been a resident of the Peninsula since 1955. She graduated from the Virginia School of Cosmetology and ran a successful beauty salon for 30 years. Many of her patrons had been with her the entire time and will miss her warm smile and special touch with a scissors and comb.
She was an accomplished musician. An excellent guitar player and composer of songs. She entertained family and friends on many occasions and was a lover of music. She loved flowers and plants, and her gardens were a site to behold in the spring.
She is survived by her husband of 55 years, D.O. Headrick; five children, Ronnie Headrick of Hampton, Donna Lintelman of Terre Haute, Ind., Denny Headrick of Hampton, David Headrick of Houston, Texas, and Roger Headrick of Poquoson; eight grandchildren and one great- grandchild.
She was a loving, giving person with many talents. She will be missed by all who knew her.
The family will be receiving friends from 6 to 7 p.m. today at Peninsula Funeral Home. A service will be held at 12:30 p.m. Tuesday at Peninsula Funeral Home. Burial will follow in Parklawn Memorial Park.
Donations may be made to the American Cancer Society, 895 Middle Ground Blvd., Suite 154, Newport News, VA 23606.
