Michelle and family, you are in my prayers. Your mom and dad were always special for and to me. God bless all of you.
I met Bennie years ago when she worked at my insurance agency. She was wonderful. She was funny. My best to the family. My thoughts and prayers are with you.
My heartfelt condolences to the family. Bennie was my work and walking buddy for several years. I will always remember the laughter we shared and the advice she gave me. She had a genuineness that is hard to find.
