Mr. Sherman L. Blanks

Our family at Majestic Funeral Home joins with the Blanks family to inform those concerned that Mr. Sherman Blanks has permanently changed his address from Earth to Glory as of Sunday, March 16, 2025, surrounded by his devoted family.

On Saturday, March 22, 2025, beginning at 10am until 11am, Mr. Blanks family has elected to have him lie in repose for a public viewing at Graham Chapel AME Zion Church located at 458 E Arcadia Rd, in Riegelwood, NC.  Beginning at 11am, a formal “farewell” ceremony will be called to order at Graham Chapel AME Zion Church in Riegelwood, NC.  Immediately following the formalities in the church, Mr. Blanks earthen vessel along with his cherished family will be escorted to Mount Pleasant AME Zion Church Cemetery for Committal Rites.  One may wonder why Mr. Blanks would leave his earthly belongings here when he departed this past Sunday, however, those close to him find comfort understanding that where Sherman is now there was no need for any of his earthly garments or shoes because he has a pair of Golden Slippers and a Long White Robe. 

The family is receiving visitors at the residence located at 291 Weyman Rd, Riegelwood, NC where they will assemble in preparation for the Prestigious Majestic Ebony Motorcade.

E.M. Matthews and The Compassionate Professionals of Majestic Funeral Home are serving Mr. Blanks' precious loved ones with uncompromising dignity.
