Dear Family,
You have my deepest sympathy for your loss. God will provide you with comfort during this grievous time and he promises a better future. Revelation 21:3,4 God will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away.

My heartfelt sympathy goes out to Benny's family and friends. Benny was one of my students in elementary school. He was always smiling and quick to laugh. He usually had the other students and me laughing along with him. He was loved by his classmates and his teacher. He won't be forgotten. You are in my prayers.

Our utmost sympathy goes out to Dawn. No Mother should have to endure this kind of heartache. Benny was a outstanding young Man. His personality and energy has touched a lot of people, both young and old. He was just stepping out into the world, and had everything going for him. The Lord must have needed another angel pretty badly to take him away from all of us here on Earth who would have benefited from his being with us. Amber and Shiann our prayers go out to the both of you ladies as well. It will take a long time to heal from our loss.

Dawn, I am so very sorry about Benny. He was a blessing and a great person with a huge heart. I loved teaching him and I showed everyone his picture when he graduated. I was/am extremely proud of him.
I am here for you whenever you need me. I am still in New Orleans but in spirit I am with you. I love you.

Dawn, my heart goes out to you in the loss of your dear loved one; Benny. Death is never easy, it pains our hearts. Our loving God Jehovah is aware of this and he comforts us by means of his word the Bible. Psalm 34:18 says: Jehovah is close to the brokenhearted; He saves those who are crushed in spirit. The promise at Revelation 21:4 is also very comforting. It says: And he (God) will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. May these words strengthen and encourage you during this time of bereavement.

Lord please help my mother and all of the many people who have been touched by my brother. We were more like twins than just siblings but Benny was clearly the better of the two of us. He was my heart, still is. Just now he's also my angel 👼
