Sign In Blanche C. Nethercutt August 10, 1927 - November 22, 2021 Share Obituary: Tribute Wall Obituary & Events Share a memory Obituary Mrs. Blanche Crawford Nethercutt, age 94, passed away Monday night, November 22, 2021, at Kitty Askins Hospice Center. Born August 10, 1927, she was the daughter of George Robert Crawford and Melva Kathleen Harris Crawford. A published story on Mrs. Nethercutt and her late husband, Lawrence, regarding their long marriage highlighted that she wanted to marry a farmer and grow flowers. She did just that. Blanche was a consummate homemaker and helpmate to her husband and cherished her role as a wife, mother, and grandmother. She possessed a love of flowers and grew them annually, often times providing the arrangements for her church for Sunday services in addition to sharing them with friends and relatives. Just as her husband was often described as a “southern gentleman”, Blanche was a true “southern lady”. Mrs. Nethercutt was a member of Brooks Frizzelle Memorial United Methodist Church where she had been a very faithful and serving member until declining health limited her. Blanche was preceded in death on August 31, 2021, by her beloved husband of 74 years, Lawrence Harvey Nethercutt. Blanche passed away just a few minutes shy of what would have been their 75th wedding anniversary. In addition to her parents and husband, Blanche was predeceased by a granddaughter, Erica Sugg; and siblings, Alice Harper, Ruth Beaman, Raymond Crawford, George “Bud” Crawford, Donald Crawford and H.C. Crawford. Her surviving family includes her daughter, Gail Nethercutt Sugg and husband Mike of Snow Hill; son, Harvey Nethercutt and wife Sue of Snow Hill; grandchildren, Carl Nethercutt and wife Chrysti of Virginia, Brian Nethercutt and wife Emily of Greenville, and Tracey Sugg Rogers and husband Mark of Philadelphia; and great-grandchildren, Addy, Remy and Denver. A private family graveside service will be held with the Reverend James Thomas officiating. In lieu of flowers, memorials are suggested to Brooks Frizzelle Memorial UMC, c/o Margaret Clemmons, PO Box 43, Maury, NC 28554.
