Dearest Carol,
The service was beautiful. What an amazing family and what a loving and strong mother you have been. My best memories are of Chase and little league baseball…You know the one. It makes me smile. And Jared's tribute today showed the strength and tenderness that only the finest of men could offer. I will be seeing you in the coming weeks. Much love from all of the Lubkes to the dear Bennetts.

What a sweet smiling boy he was. If there anything we can do, you know we'll be there for you. Lean on God. Love you always, Beth and Jay

While short, his life touched so many. He created memories that will last forever and the ones he touched are better for knowing him. I only met him a couple of times and both times he was full of energy and smiling. Carol, Gordon, Jared, family, and friends I am truly sorry for the loss of Chase. While we mourn let us celebrate his life. You can tell he impacted this world in a good way by the messages left here. Today is a day of great sorrow as we remember him as the son, brother, friend, athlete, co-worker, and an all around good guy. My thoughts and prayers.

Dear Bennett Family - Words can not express my deep sympathy for the loss of your sweet Chase. I remember he was so sweet, active, curious, adventurous and full of life - even at a very young age. Once you told me that "Chase" was a fitting name for him. I pray for your comfort and peace.
Love,

I will miss Bennett so much, but I am lucky that I have so many great memories with him. I will never forget he was my only friend that stuck with me down my first ski slope. It took us 3 hrs! And you know that was torture for him being such a dare devil! He was always a great friend to everyone. I am so sorry Carol. I can't imagine how is feels to lose your sweet boy.
