Bennett Bare Obituary
Bennett was born May 19, 2025 in Peoria to Timothy and Rachel (Ullrich) Bare. From the beginning, Bennet was fighter. He endured his hospital stays with strength and joy in spite of the circumstances. He was sweet and happy, and though his time with us was brief, he made an impact on so many. Bennett will be remembered by his bright smile and the light he shared with those around him.
Bennett's parents, Tim and Rachel survive; as do his loving big sisters, Madison, Everly, and Brianna. Also surviving are his grandparents, Laurie and William Ullrich and Thomas and Ann Bare; great-grandma, Rose Hansen; his aunts and uncle, Christine Bare-Kemper, Elizabeth Flatt, and Matthew Ullrich; and his eight cousins.
His great-grandparents, Frank and Elga Ullrich and Donald Hansen preceded him in death.
A memorial Mass will be held at 10:00am Saturday, February 28, 2026 at St. Thomas the Apostle Catholic Church in Peoria Heights.
