  "Bennie" as she was called by all that knew her and loved her. She was a wonderful caring, loving person.  She lived for her family.  Once she stated "The only reason I don't want to die is I have to leave my family."  Well, I'm sure she is with her Mother, Father and Grandparents and others she also loved.  She is greatly missed but is not alone.
