Aurora and family, I am so sorry to hear of Mr. Benitez death. I remember going to the movies in town near my home. He would always greet us with a smile. I remember him coming to our store to buy tortillas and carnitas and barbacoa. Those were the good days. Aurora he will always be with all of you. He is now in the presence of the Lord where there is no more pain. May God give you peace in this time of grief.
