The Southlake, Texas, community is mourning the heartbreaking loss of Blake Dorman, a young man whose life, character, and kindness left a lasting imprint on everyone who had the privilege of knowing him.
His passing has created a deep sense of grief across multiple communities, from his hometown of Southlake to the Texas A&M family he proudly called his own.
Raised in Southlake, Blake grew up surrounded by a culture of service, school pride, and community connection.
During his years in Carroll ISD, he became widely known not for seeking attention, but for consistently giving it to others.
His time as a team manager for Southlake Carroll Dragons Football reflected who he was at his core — selfless, dependable, and deeply committed to supporting those around him.
Blake carried the values of loyalty, discipline, and humility into every part of his life. Friends and classmates remember him as someone who made people feel welcome without effort.
He had a natural ability to connect with others, not through loud gestures, but through genuine presence, quiet support, and sincere kindness. He showed up for people, not because he had to, but because that was simply who he was.
After high school, Blake became a student at Texas A&M University, where he embraced the Aggie spirit with pride.
He built friendships rooted in loyalty and respect, and he quickly became someone others depended on. T
For those who knew him on campus, Blake represented the very meaning of community, someone who cared deeply about people, tradition, and belonging.
Those closest to him describe Blake as driven, dependable, and full of promise. He had plans, ambitions, and dreams for his future, and he pursued them with determination and quiet confidence.
His life, though far too short, was filled with purpose, meaning, and impact. His laughter, compassion, and integrity are memories that will remain in the hearts of his friends and family forever.
Blake’s passing has left his family and loved ones facing an unimaginable loss, one no parent should ever have to endure.
Along with the emotional devastation, they are also carrying the heavy burden of unexpected funeral, burial, and memorial expenses. In response, the community has come together to support the Dorman family through a memorial fund created in his honor — a reflection of the love, respect, and unity Blake inspired in life.
Support has poured in from Southlake, the Carroll Dragons community, and the Aggie family, all united in honoring a young man who lived with humility, kindness, and heart.
Blake Dorman’s legacy is not defined by the length of his life, but by the depth of his impact. He will be remembered as a son, a friend, a teammate, an Aggie, and a light in the lives of many.
Forever a Dragon. Forever an Aggie.
