A Tribute to Benton





My dear friend Margarita delivered sweet baby, Benton on 12/28 but he was still-born.


Dear Benton, do you know that you have changed the world?
That your life has impacted many, many people for Jesus?
That there are people who spend more time with their family, who hug their children a little bit tighter because of you?
I am so proud to know your mommy. She is so kind, funny and loving...and one of the most beautiful followers of Christ I know. I sure wish you could have spent more time with her... 9 months just wasn't enough time to hear her voice. We just took a picture of you and your sisters last week, you were so photogenic and your sisters loved touching you, anxiously awaiting to hold you and hear your first cry.
I am so thankful that God has chosen to use you in a mighty way.
We know that heaven is the best place to be, and we long for the day when we will get to see you again. Please know that you hold the most special place in our hearts and that we will never forget you.

Prayerfully,
Your friends
