Blanchard, Michael "Flathead"
1944 ~ 2012
A Celebration of the life of Michael "Flathead" Blanchard will be held on April 14th, 3 pm 8160 Rosemary St, Commerce City. Weary of reading obituaries noting someone's courageous battle with death, Mike wanted it known that he died as a result of being stubborn, refusing to follow doctors' orders and raising hell for more than six decades. He enjoyed booze, guns, cars and younger women until the day he died.
Mike was born July 1944 in Colorado to Clyde and Ethel Blanchard. A community activist, he is noted for saving the Dr. Justina Ford house from demolition and defending those who could not defend themselves. He was a Republican delegate, life member of the NRA, founder and President of the Dead Cats MC. He loved music.
Mike was preceded in death by Clyde and Ethel Blanchard, survived by his beloved sons Mike and Chopper, former wife Jane Transue, brother Stephen Blanchard (Susan), Uncle Don and Aunt Cynthia Blanchard(his favorite); Uncle Dill and Aunt Dot, cousins and nephews, Baba Yaga can kiss his butt. So many of his childhood friends that weren't killed in Vietnam went on to become criminals, prostitutes and/or Democrats. He asks that you stop by and re-tell the stories he can no longer tell. As the Celebration will contain Adult material we respectfully ask that no children under 18 attend

We had a true "Lady" pass at church whileback
her daughter was all up tight, but her step kids took over, and it was a RIOT
we laughed, laughed till we cried, then laughed some more,
then went and had some great food.

it was an AWESOME celebration of her life, the funny things she did, and the way she made you try to act you were somebody.
she had money for most of her life, and she was just a beautiful charming southern belle,
and her funeral was an awesome celebration of how she lived her live, her way, and how we got on the ride with her, at different times.

over Easter, i took my niece out in the Chevelle, and on the Harley.
I hope they tell those stories at my funeral.

my niece is filming this, you can hear my Gbaby yelling POPPOP in the back seat. (thats why was easy pull thru gears)
