Heather Nicole Blanton

Heather Nicole Blanton, born on September 25, 1986, in Columbus, Ohio, departed this life on November 2, 2024. A beloved figure to many, Heather's presence was one that radiated warmth and humor. Memories of her unyielding spirit and her laughter will forever echo in the hearts of those who were privileged to know her.

Heather was a true family woman, whose love for her family knew no bounds. Her strong-willed nature complemented her protective instincts, always ensuring that her loved ones felt cherished and secure. She often used her voice to speak openly and honestly, never shying away from the truth. With her joyful demeanor and playful sarcasm, she had an uncanny ability to inject humor into every situation, making her the heart and soul of countless gatherings.

Her adoration for her nieces and nephew was unparalleled; they were not just family, they were her world. Heather delighted in showering them with love and attention, always making time for their interests and dreams. She was constantly on the lookout for ways to create special moments with them, embracing every opportunity to share in their joy. Whether through thoughtful gifts or spontaneous adventures, Heather’s loving nature provided her family with endless laughter and unforgettable memories.

Beyond her devotion to family, Heather had a keen sense of style and flair. She loved fashion, taking pleasure in shopping, and meticulously crafting her looks, always showcasing her artistic side through her hair and makeup. To many, she was more than just a fashionable woman; she was a trendsetter in her own right, always eager to help others express themselves with confidence and creativity.

Heather’s legacy will be carried forward by her surviving family members, including her brother, Nicholas Todd Piper, and his partner, Nichole Loring, as well as her loving fiancé, Larry Jenkins. Her spirit also lives on through her cherished nephew, Ayden Piper, and her adored nieces, Aundrea, Alayna, and Adalynn Piper.

Though she has been preceded in death by her father, Charles Jack Piper, her mother, Renee Louise Piper, her grandma, Jacqueline Yoak, and her grandpa, William Ed Yoak, Heather’s memory serves as a poignant reminder of how loved and influential she was in so many lives.

The community will have the opportunity to celebrate Heather’s life through two services: a viewing will take place on November 12, 2024, from 5:00 PM to 8:00 PM, and a funeral service is scheduled for November 13, 2024, at 10:00 AM, both at the Newcomer Funeral Home in Grove City, OH.

As we say our farewells to Heather, we hold close the lessons she imparted through her remarkable spirit—the importance of family, the power of laughter, and the strength found in love. She will forever be missed but never forgotten.
