I lost a new friend today. We became "text pals" through our cancers. We talked about treatments, scans, our highs and lows, what we ate, and the weight we lost; We chatted about our beloved husband/wife and kids. We spoke of things that cancer people carry. I found great comfort in getting to know this kind, humble friend. We talked about fear and faith and our choice to trust God and His plan for us. No matter what we faced with cancer, we could remain strong. Mark is with Jesus now, home and at peace. Oh, how I would love to read one more text from him about heaven. I will miss him.
MARK VICTOR BENOIT. RIP. February 1, 1955 - June 25, 2022
