Sandra Lee Benner

Thank you all for your kind words and thoughts. We knew she was a great mom and grandma, family meant everything to her but it's nice to know she was such a great friend as well.
She will be missed!

My thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of grief. May your memories bring you comfort.

Cindy and Family, So sorry for the loss of your mother and all she was to everyone. She was such a great and caring lady. My Mom and I will miss her visits back here in Illinois. I have so many fun memories of her and our card games, shopping and eating at the Aloha restaurant where she loved the chicken wings. We were always so glad when she told us she was coming. Her visits were never long enough and went to fast. We had so many good times. She loved you all very much and shared...

Dear Cindy & Bosco, I just wanted to express my deepest sympathy. Your Mom was such a special person. We had some good times together when you kids were small and will never be forgotten.

MOM

You were such a great Mother, Wife, Grandmother and friend to so many. You were the center of our family. We could always count on you for a helping hand, things like parties, holidays, or special occasions. We could also count on your advice on any matter. You were the first person we called.
It seems like just yesterday you were changing Joey's and Nikki's diapers. We were all going to Disneyland or an Angel game. You know of the hundreds of sporting events they had I...

“Perhaps they are not stars, but rather openings in heaven where the love of our lost ones pours through and shines down upon us to let us know they are happy.”
My dear, dear friend. They say "Do not cry because it is over, but smile because it happened". I am going to try real hard to go to our favorite lunch spots and smile; to visit many of the places we visited together and be happy, but I will so miss your calls on my birthdays, having you there and knowing I could share anything...

A STAR IN THE SKY. I WILL MISS YOU

This is for Cindy and Bosco: I know you will miss your mom, but you both have been very blessed to have such a loving, caring MOM and Grandma, for you and your children. Your kids will have great memories of being with her, and seeing her at all the events in your lives. Memories are all we really have, and I am sure you have some wonderful ones. She was so very proud of all of you, and loved you so much.
I know she has no more pain, she is in a place that is peaceful and beautiful. ...
