Christy Nelson Kneese - Dear Shelley, Vicki and Rob, I was so sad to hear about your Mom. I lost my Mom just 3 years ago and I know how tough it is. So many of my early memories include the Benken family. It doesn't seem possible that over 50 years have passed since the old gang used to get together! My thoughts and prayers are with you all and I cry with you. Love, Christy
