Although, it's difficult to except the lost of someone so near and dear to our heart. But at the same time, it's comforting to know that she has moved on to the next stage of her existed.

To the family of Sis. Benbow. She was an example to all that had the privilege of knowing this woman of God. She lived her life as a believer that demonstrated a life that bought glory to her God. She will be missed but not forever, for we will see her again.

Nita, I was praying for a miricle. By this young lady I was so inspired by her faith in God and in her service to our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To look at her you never knew or heard her complain, always carrying a smile, not to show the pain she was in. Her life has inspired me. As long as I live I will never forget ther. My prayers are with the family , through faith and love I know God will see you through.

Arthur and family,
I did not know Juanita, but I was a classmate of Arthur's at John Marshall and Huntington. I extend my heartfelt sympathies to each of you. I have lost a young daughter also and the pain of lost can be so overwhelming. But, I know that you and your family have had a strong spiritual foundation throughout your lives and it will sustain you. I'm keeping you all in prayer. Be encouraged.

Nita you will always be my "Baby girl" You are the epitome of strength and faith in the Father. I will always remember the fun bus ride home when you marked everyone in our church. Esp. me as you warned me that I might break one of the pews if I keep hitting them:-). I love you so much and that amazed me that it happened so fast, but you're just that kind of baby girl. Your orbit is my honor. Rest baby rest
