TO THE EDITOR:

Johnathan Benson was many things to many people. Son, brother, grandson, uncle, cousin, nephew, the list goes on. To me, he was a great guy who had a smile that caused joy. You couldnít see his smile and not smile back. John was loved by many and will be missed by many. We, as a community, have lost a hero. We have lost a friend. Please remember the family of Johnathan Benson in your prayers. Their hearts will need to heal.

Thank you God for sharing him with us, we canít blame you for wanting him back. John, go walk the streets of gold, entertain the angels with your sense of humor, and remember to meet us at the gate. We will never forget you or your courageous fight.
