Brian J. Bender

I love you Dad, I miss you.

May your hearts soon be filled with wonderful memories of joyful times together as you celebrate a life well lived.

So sad to hear of Brian's passing. He was one heck of a great guy, I've thought of him a lot over these past few years since I've come back to the bus company. He was one of the nicest and loved mechanics at National School Bus in Mundelein back in the day. He will be truly missed by all that knew him. RIP Brian.

Remember that you always tried to fix everything. Carding for all, full of Mr. Im laughing at all while. May you rest in peace

Christina and Family there are no words of comfort I can say, no words of inspiration to take away your loss and sadness hurt and anger. The only thing that comes to mind is "I'm sorry for your loss" is that enough. Is that ever enough to say to anyone when they've lost a loved one maybe you can find some comfort in this Brian is in Heaven, it is a place with no more sorrow or crying. Heaven is a place where the hurts and disappointment of this world have no more sting. Where the frustrations of life are replaced with unspeakable joys. Where the pains of life are not permitted and the failures of life control us no longer. A place with no more pain. There are not pharmacies and prescriptions to fill. Heaven doesnt have hospitals, nursing homes, or rehabilitation centers. The days of aches and pains for him are over and that all his pain has ended.
I want you to imagine this, the moment that he took his first breath in Heaven the Lord was right there to welcome him. THE FIRST IMAGES HE SAW WAS THE LORD JESUS HIMSELF! He was there with His arms wide open to receive him in to that great mansion that He has prepared for all His children.
Here is a prayer for you and the family
Dear heavenly Father we once again thank you for the life of Brian. We thank you for all the lives that he has touched and the memories that he has left. And now Father, we ask that you comfort the many family members and friends that will gathered to always remember the frailty of life. For its in your name we pray,
Amen.
