To Johnny and all Blair’s family: You were loved by a special guy! “We’re not done yet!!” was his signature declaration, with a huge grin (as we huffed and puffed our way through his great classes!) Never a dull moment with Blair. We loved him, too! May he have eternal rest and peace! Mary Cassidy

Dear Blair, I'll always cherish the times we spent together. You'd bring Harley dog over and have a visit and Harley would have a play date with Dexter dog. I'll miss your smile, and awesome personality. You were a very special person and a wonderful friend. Rest in peace my dear friend, you are now reunited with Harley dog from Cathy and the Mayne family

Blair was a one of a kind motivator at the aerobics, step, and fitness classes I attended a few years ago. Blair made me laugh, work hard, and genuinely cared about people. My condolences to his family.

Dear Blair. Your kindness and love of life will be truly missed. You were a wonderful example to the world with your positive attitude and living life at the fullest. Teaching me at Progress and the Y. I am still sore! Baking cookies. I make your whipped shortbreads every Christmas. Coming over to my home to learn how to make pastry for one of your favorite desserts - butter tarts. You were one of a kind. Blessings to you. Rest in peace. We loved you Leigh B

Blair and I were friends in high school. We both moved from the County and lost touch, but bumped into each other in Kingston a few times and it was joyful to see him. He was always ready with a big smile and a warm hug. He was one of my favorite people. Maria Zaban-Stanley

Blair was always that glowing brightness when walking into the gym or Sigrids. His energy was uplifting, he was genuine and kind. He will be greatly missed. My heartfelt condolences to all of Blairs family.

To Blair's loved ones... We don't know where to begin with memories of Blair. There are so many!! From road trips, concerts, movies, dinners and brunches out, our wedding where we couldn't have had a better best man stand up for us. Blair was the friend that even if we hadn't seen him or spoken in awhile, you still knew he'd be there in a heartbeat if you needed him. We are going to miss this crazy, fun-loving, friend tremendously. We will think of him and laugh at some of the crazy things we did with him. He will forever be in our hearts. Shawn, Lillie, Cameron & Trevor Shillington
