Lynn Blakeston
1946 - 2025 | Sheffield
In loving memory of Lynn Blakeston, or Blako as he is known in the music scene that he performed and worked in for most of his years.
Lynn is loved and missed by his wife, Anita, and their children and grandchildren. His absence also touches the lives of musicians and dear friends he made a lasting impression on over the years. Known as a loveable character, those closest to him would have known his generosity, kindness and the zest he had for life.
St. Luke's cared for Lynn beautifully and was vital in supporting Anita and the family during the end stages of his illness. Thank you in advance to anyone is able to make a contribution, big or small. We are grateful for your help in thanking this wonderful organisation, so they can continue to support others in difficult times.

Thoughts and Donations
When we established the charity, Katie's Concerts, we knew nothing about putting on gigs. Lynn and Anita came to our rescue and supported us over many years, helping to raise thousands of pounds for charity. Lynn will be sadly missed and our thoughts go out to Anita and all the family. Graham, Jane and Thomas Darwood and all involved with Katie's Concerts.

I’m so grateful that St Luke’s was there to care for Lynn in the final stages of his illness and know that Lynn’s wife Anita and his son Julian and their close family would have found comfort in knowing that Lynn was in safe hands. Our thoughts are with you all at this sad time. Love Sheridan and Shane
