We are very sad for the loss of Mrs. Benfer, but what a wonderful life she had! She set such a good example of being a great Mom and a loving Grannie. The Klein community has truly been blessed with her in our lives. Though she has passed on to be with Mr. Benfer, her love and tenderness will be carried on through the next generation of Benfers as Amy Benfer Vann will teach and share all she learned from her grannie to her baby. What a blessing that is!
