Jimmy Marie Benjamin, known to her family and friends as Henry Mae, passed away on Wednesday, March 12, 2025, at AdventHealth Hospital in Orlando, FL. She was 69 years old. She was born February 19, 1956 in Waukegan, IL. She was such a strong, loving, and devoted Mother, Grandmother, Sister, Aunt, and a Friend. She faced many challenges and overcame every last one of them. She loved the Lord, she kept her Faith, and she was a woman of beauty and a woman of Great Strength. She was full of Life, a comedian, a special kind of jewel, and she lit up every room she walked into. She’ll never be forgotten, and she’ll forever be missed, a one of a kind, loving, sweet, and gentle Spirit. Our heart of gold, our Angel, our Rose, has now found great peace In the arms of the Lord, family, and friends. Let’s continue to celebrate her life with love, peace, laughter, and great joy.
