BLACKBURN, John Ashley, passed away peacefully at his home in Charlottesville, on January 20, 2009, surrounded by his loving family. Jack was born November 29, 1941 to Stephen John and Ruth Johnson Blackburn in Colora, Md.; and is survived by his wife of 45 years, Betty Blackburn; sister, Dawn Blackburn Sobocinski of Wilmington, Del.; daughter, Heidi Blackburn Helmers of Louisville, Ky.; son, John Ashley Blackburn Jr. of Lexington, Va.; and his four beloved grandchildren. Jack was educated at Western Maryland College and Indiana University, served overseas in the United States Army and then began a career in college admissions as Director of Admission at Mary Baldwin College in 1968. In 1979, he was hired by then-Dean of Admission John T. Casteen III to become an associate dean at the University of Virginia. Jack was appointed Dean of Admission in 1985 and served in that role until his death. Blackburn worked tirelessly to make UVA's student population more racially, internationally and socioeconomically diverse while also dramatically raising the overall academic profile of the University. Blackburn created an outreach office within Admission to encourage highly qualified African-American students to apply and accept offers of admission; as a result, UVA's African-American students graduate at the highest rate of any public university in America. He pushed for increased financial aid for students and abolished the University's early-decision admission process, which he felt provided undue advantage to students from families affluent enough to commit to the University without first seeing a financial aid offer. Blackburn was instrumental in creating the AccessUVA financial aid program, under which it accepted in-state students from lower income families to receive a full scholarship and promoted it enthusiastically, repeatedly visiting high schools in communities all over the Commonwealth, from Tangier Island to Grundy. He often said, "There are smart kids everywhere." In recognition of his service to the University, Blackburn received the Thomas Jefferson Award, the highest honor given to a member of the University community, in 2008. Blackburn also served as a trustee to the College Board and as an Elder at Westminster Presbyterian Church. His grace, integrity and extraordinary generosity will be missed, but his legacy endures in the lives of the countless people he has touched throughout his life. A memorial service will be held at 11 a.m. on Saturday, January 24, at Westminster Presbyterian Church at 190 Rugby Road, Charlottesville. A reception will follow at Alumni Hall, 211 Emmet Street. In lieu of flowers, memorial gifts may be made to the John A. Blackburn Endowed Scholarship for AccessUVA, Office of Development and Public Affairs, Attn: Gift Accounting, P.O. Box 400807, Charlottesville, Va. 22904; the Jack and Betty Blackburn Endowed Jefferson Scholarship, Jefferson Scholars Foundation, P.O.

DREWRY, Patty Moncure, widow of Thomas Watkins Drewry, died peacefully at home on January 18, 2009. The younger daughter of the late William Augustus Moncure and Margaret Tinsley Moncure, Mrs. Drewry was born in Richmond in 1917. She grew up at the family home "Picquenocque" in Henrico County, as part of an exceptionally close-knit extended family, to which she was devoted. She was graduated from Collegiate School and attended Sweetbriar College. Mrs. Drewry worked at the Richmond News Leader for several years and served as a volunteer nurse's aid at the Medical College of Virginia during World War II. After their marriage in 1949, she and her husband lived briefly in Martinsville before moving to Williamsburg, where they raised their children at "Charlton House" in the Historic Area until his death in 1969, after which she made her home in Richmond. A member of Richmond's Second Presbyterian Church and a former member of the Williamsburg Presbyterian Church, Mrs. Drewry lived out the spirit of her faith and supported the Church's missions in a myriad of ways each day. Like her mother and her husband, she always quietly found ways to help others, both through organizations such as Meals on Wheels (for which she served as a longtime driver) and through generous individual acts of thoughtful kindness. Mrs. Drewry pursued her interests in historic preservation through active membership in the Association for the Preservation of Virginia Antiquities and several Virginia county historical societies. She loved to garden, was a prize-winning flower arranger and was long involved in the Garden Club of Virginia. She was also a member of The Woman's Club, the Colonial Dames, the Country Club of Virginia and a former member of the Quarry Club and the Tuckahoe Woman's Club. The last, and longest, surviving of the seven Moncure children, Mrs. Drewry was preceded in death by her sister, Margaret Moncure Johnson; and their brothers, William Augustus Moncure Jr., Thomas Rutherfoord Moncure, James Garland Tinsley Moncure, Eustace Conway Moncure and John Moncure. She is survived by her son, William Sidney Drewry II of Williamsburg; her daughter and son-in-law, Virginia Watkins Drewry and Howard Curtiss Martin, of Alexandria; her granddaughter, Abigail Tinsley Moncure Martin of Alexandria and Williamstown, Massachusetts; two sisters-in-law, Julia Jones Moncure and Mary Cox Moncure, both of Richmond; the rest of the extended Moncure and Tinsley connection, including a host of nieces and nephews and their families and many friends.
