We are saddened to announce that Wendy Lyn Blankenship Cox, age 46 of Pulaski, passed away unexpectedly on Tuesday, December 27, 2022. She was a caring mother, daughter, sister, and friend.

Wendy was a graduate of the Pulaski County High School class of 1994, and had a long career in sales at Xaloy. She was fun-loving with an enormous heart. There were many occasions when Wendy would go without to help complete strangers. She loved her motorcycles and driving fast down a deserted road. Wendy had a special place in her heart for her family, and her dogs Walter and Nugget, whom she loved dearly. Our lives will not be the same with the loss of our dear mother, daughter, sister, and friend.

Wendy was preceded in death by her grandparents, James Kelly “Bud” Blankenship, Jr. and Stella “Irene” Blankenship, Rebecca Normandin, David Normandin, step father, Richard Fleming and a very special uncle, John “Greg” Blankenship.

Wendy is survived by her children: Megan Cox of Dublin, and Mason Cox of Dublin: her parents; James “Kelly” Blankenship, III of Pulaski, Teresa Anne Normandin Fleming of Bristol, VA: her siblings; Robin (Derek) Stoots of Pulaski, Casey Blankenship of Bristol, VA, James (Kelly) Blankenship of Pulaski, Terri (Randall) Ingram of Columbia, TN, and her significant other, Gabriel Vest of Floyd. She also leaves behind many special uncle, aunts, cousins, nephews, and a niece.

Funeral services will be held Monday, January 2, 2023 at 7:00 p.m. at Seagle Funeral Home. The family will receive friends on Monday at the funeral home from 5:00 p.m. until 7:00 p.m. Interment will be private.
