Default Help! Odd Starting Issue

1997 Blazer 4.3L LT

On the way home from work I made a right turn and it was hard as anything! Wanna know why? The car decided to shut off.

Now, key on-car off, the center compass console (roof) comes on, the door adjar buzzer comes on, but give it about 30 second to a full minute for the rest of the car to trigger on. After it triggers, the instrument cluster and idiot lights finally come on and the car is ready to start. But that doesn't mean it's ready to idle constantly. Sometimes it's taking about two to three starts for it to stay running.

Does this issue sound familiar to anyone??

I was told possibly could be the ignition switch?

Definitely sounds like the ignition switch to me.
