I am so sorry to hear that she passed away. She was a great and sweet woman who I know was always caring and there for everyone. I will miss her too and I wish I could have said good-bye...but like my sister amanda said in her poem "one day we will be by her side" which is true. So I hope everyone who knows her makes it throughokay..but My heart goes out to all of you...

On a separate note from my family, I want to tell you that you are my hero, and I love you so very much. More than I could ever say or show. We've always been there for each other, and I will miss the talks we had all the time. Your laugh will always cheer me up in my heart. I will miss you more than anything, but I'll remember that you are still here with us and that I will see you once again. I love you!!:)

Dear Grandma, we will all miss you in the flesh. As a dedicated Christian man, I know you believed in god and that his son died on the cross for all our sins. You where dedicated to god and now the rewards will pay off. I picture you in a beautiful house and walking to the store in the gates of heaven. You and I both know the benefits of believing in god, I pray that the rest of the family will follow in your footsteps and walk with god so we can all gather together one day. Grandma I love and I will miss you, I will also keep my promise.

I, Andrew, and Amanda would like to thank everyone who has been there for us, for their kindness and comfort. This is a poem Cecilia's grand-daughter wrote for her while she was sick to express her feelings for her.
Words cannot describe her, Tears fill our eyes, We don't know really what to say, We don't really know how to speak, So much to say, But not so much as a peep, Nothing describes her warmth and love, Her laughs and sarcasm, Her kisses and hugs, She told us not to worry, She worried for us, She was a saint, An angel from above, When all is through, She's been through much, She may have left, But she's still here in our hearts, We said our goodbyes, But one day yet again, We will be by her side. By Amanda Witunsky
Thank you to everyone again from our hearts

Greg & I would like to thank our extended family and friends for your generosity, support, and prayers during this difficult time in our lives. The support that was received was overwhelming.
My mother- in -law was a wonderful, unique, individual , a “living saint” to all who had the opportunity of knowing her. She will be extremely missed and always cherished.
Cecilia Benson was not just a mother-in-law to me but “my friend”. I will miss you dearly “gramma”
We Love you
