My father told me that he walked into Lowe's and saw a man who looked and sounded just like Ollie. He walked up to him and said, "You are a Blunt." The young man answered, "Yes". They spoke for a moment, and Daddy said for a moment, Ollie was back. We will never stop missing Ollie. Love you, Blunt family. Gigi.

Ollie was a great guy. Worked with him many years at the shipyard in Charleston and Kings Bay, GA. God bless you Shelia!

Ollie was a special guy. It was always a pleasure to see him and that big smile of his. He was also a beautiful Church Brother. He and I never had a bad exchange. He always had a kind word for me and gave good sound advice. I miss him.

My deepest condolences to the entire Blunt family.

Uncle Ollie was a gentle giant! The love he had for his family was unmeasurable and a joy to experience. He had a wealth of knowledge and stories that he loved to share with anyone who would listen.

He treated me like family since the first day I met him.

Thank you for allowing me to share him with you.
