Just learned of Mr. Blanco’s passing:(. He was a very good friend of my father, Nick Castellano.
Judy so sorry ,I just found out. Roland and I, from Sacred Heart Academy to Jesuit High.
He was a vert special individual, a great classmate and friend. We the class of 54 will miss him. Rest in peace my friend. Prayers are with you Judy.
Judy, our thoughts and prayers are with you today and always. I am so sorry we were out of town. We will be in touch as soon as we return. Take good care. Andrea and MJ.
Mr. Blanco was my dear friend. He was there at the beginning of my career in education and attended my retirement in 2019. He taught me how to blend strength and compassion in the field of education, but most of all he instilled in me a dedication towards doing a complete job. He took pride in his work and never took a break. May God bless you and keep you in his care. I will miss Mr. Roland Blanco.
Roland was in grade school in Tampa (Sacred Heart Academy) with many of us who went on to Jesuit High School. Roland has always been an easy going classmate and joined us in many of our class reunions: yes the 60's reunions: reunions in the Tampa area. Judy was always with him and we all had our special love and friendships with our classmates and their wives.
Roland and Judy will be missed however we look forward to Judy joining us at our next reunion. Paul Devlin
My condolences to Judy and Roland’s relatives. Roland was a very special man. It was my pleasure to be a teacher at then Franklin Junior High from 1970- 1973 and 1978- 1996 with him. May Roland Rest In Peace and may his soul and all the souls of the faithful departed “Rest In Peace.”
Kathy Thomas Benjamin, math teacher
May Roland Rest In Eternal Peace.
