BENAVIDEZ -- Oliver IN LOVING MEMORY OLIVER BENAVIDEZ MAY 9, 1934 - OCTOBER 28, 2002 Two years ago today you left us. God knew that you were suffering; He knew you were in pain. He knew on Earth your pain would stay, so He wrapped His arms around you and lifted you to His heart. He whispered in your ear "pain be gone" and He closed your weary eyelids. At last breath, peace came upon your face. It broke our hearts to lose you, but you didn't go alone, for parts of us went with you, the day God called you home. We love you and we miss you, dad. Love your children, Family and friends
