Jane Blankenship (Jutton), 82, passed away peacefully in St. Peters, Missouri after
a long battle with Alzheimer’s. She was preceded in death by her husband of 51
years, William L. Blankenship, a Korean War veteran. She was also preceded in
death by two brothers, Fred F. Jutton III, Tom (Jutton) Spindler, and a grandson,
Matt Blankenship. She is survived by a brother, John Jutton, two sisters-in-law
Charlene Blankenship and Jackie Blankenship, two sons, Bill (Mary) Blankenship,
Rick (Cindy) Blankenship; four grandchildren, Beth (Justin) Pruitt, Jennifer
Ballmann, Angie (Adam) Ricketts, Mike (Devon) Blankenship, and six great
grandchildren, Brandin and Coltin Pruitt, Michael Ballmann, Christian and Logan
Blankenship, and Charlotte Ricketts. She is also survived by numerous nieces and
nephews. Jane was known for her sharp wit, great sense of humor, and love of
family and friends. Jane never met a stranger. Jane and Bill had many adventures
together. They owned and operated a few taverns. She always said some of her
best times were spent behind the bar. If there’s a bar for saints and souls in
Heaven, she’ll be running it in no time. Cremation will take place with interment
at Jefferson Barracks National Cemetery. Memorials may be made to the
Alzheimer’s Foundation, Missouri Department of Conservation, or charity of your
choice.
