Bennett, Hamilton, Mom and Dad,
We saw your baseball picture on the front page of the Benton Evening News Today. Benett, you probably don’t remember us, but your mom might. You and Hamilton were in our children’s programs at church in Benton. (Maybe you remember Alex?) I was thinking about the verse you read during our Children’s Sunday when you were just a little guy. It was, “For I know the plans I have for you, ” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Then you will call upon me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you. You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart.” -Jeremiah 29:11-13 (I have it on video!) Check that verse out and claim it for yourself. You and Hamilton were kids with really big hearts, ready to serve in church anytime we asked. That’s what we remember about you! God loves you and so does the whole town! Praying 4 U all, knowing He’ll strengthen you.
Scott, Lori, Adam and Alex Tockstein & Hope Chapel UMC
Hey, i dont think i really know you. but I Hope you Get better and have a good recovery!

This is a Chinese proverb that means “No task in this world is impossible so long as there are willing hearts.”
There are many willing hearts in your family and among all of the lives you have touched; all of those hearts are willing your recovery. Maintain your faith and determination to beat this disease and you will! Aunt Kim and I pray for you daily.
Love
Uncle Brian & Aunt Kim

Happy (late) 13th birthday!!
Dear Bennett and your Family,
You don’t know us but, we are familiar with some of your family who attend Immanuel Baptist Church. Our daughter, Kelesy, is a Rangler Girl at the high school. Our son Chris is married to Amy Leffler…..Tyler’s aunt. And we have a daughter, Valerie too. All of us want you and your family to know that we are praying fervently for your recovery. Each of us as parents often forget that things like this can happen to any of us, even our own children. That is why it is important that each of us who are Christians come together and surround you with love and prayer for God’s precious love and mercy. You can be sure that God has a purpose in all of this even though it isn’t easy to understand that right now. TRUST in Him and allow His loving arms to surround all of you during this difficult time. There is a sign down on South McLeansboro Street that was put there many years ago by George and Edna Severin outside the Fire’s of Revival Church. It says…… ‘GOD IS BIGGER THAN ANY PROBLEM I COULD EVER HAVE’. It is odd…we never noticed that sign until one day when circumstances in our lives were bad and out of our control. We felt the world had ended because of things that had happened that caused us to wonder if God had forsaken us. But because of prayers from alot of people, some we didn’t even know, we came through that time in our lives and are stronger because because of it. God was there all the time. It was US who had become weak, not Him! Through the years that sign has come to our minds and comforted us when we, ourselves, felt that we were all alone during difficult times in our lives. It isn’t always easy to be strong and keep your chin up but I guarantee you that not one single second goes by when the Lord doesn’t know your needs. Trust in Him. Because what the sign says is so very true……God IS bigger than any problem we could ever have!! God bless your entire family. Our prayers are with you all.
Sincerely, Allen and Janice Crawford and family Feel free to email us if there is anything we can do no matter how small or large. janice_c731@hotmail.com

Hey Bennett this is Tammi & Kyle. Kyle & I were just sitting here & I was thinking about this past fall when we got T-P’d and I started laughing. We were awake watching a movie when all this was going on. Kyle said you guys were even on the front porch & we didn’t hear anyone…HHMMMM, you wouldn’t know anything about that one would you buddy? ha ha
Get well soon you little stinker!
WE LOVE YOU ,
Tammi & Kyle
Heyy Bennet.

i have no blast (blast are leuknia cells) but i do not have none today but i cold have some tomorrow but that depnds on my blood tests
Cheerful thoughts like sunbeams
Lighten up the “darkest fears,”
For when the heart is happy,
There’s just no time for tears.
And when the face is smiling,
It’s impossible to frown,
And when you are “high-spirited,”
You cannot feel “low-down.”
For the nature of our attitude
Toward circumstantial things,
Determines our acceptance
Of the problems that life brings.
And since fear and dread and worry
Cannot help in any way,
It’s much healthier and happier
To be cheerful every day.
And if you’ll only try it
You will find, without a doubt,
A cheerful attitude’s something
No one should be without.
For when the heart is cheerful,
It cannot be filled with fear,
And without fear the way ahead
Seems more distinct and clear.
~ Helen Steiner Rice ~
Sending all my best wishes for a speedy recovery!

Bennett,
I have just read the website and have seen the GREAT news. I so happy for you and your family. Let me introduce myself to you. My name is Vicky Pearce, I have known your mom since the 2nd grade. You probably know my husband Les, he wired your new barn. He just recently had a fight with cancer of the mouth. He is now doing great also. I know how hard it may seem at times being in the hospital, BELIEVE ME, but that is a great place, with great people. I truley believe that’s why Les is still here today. Tell your mom, if she needs anything or would like to talk just email me or call. Marya has my number.
Les and I want to let you know we are thinking of you and your family. If you all need anything, just call. Can’t wait to see you on the ballfield this summer.

From Bethany Hammodns
Hi Bennett,
This is your old 3rd grade teacher, Mrs. Hammond. I fondly remember having you in class a few years ago. I remember what a hard worker you were! I want you to use that determination to help get you through this difficult time. After reading the results of your tests where no blast cells were found, it is obvious that God is answering the many prayers that are being said. I hope you know that everyone in this area is praying for you and your family. Hang in there and keep working hard to fight this disease. I hope to see you back on the court, baseball field and classroom soon!

Keep Holdin’ On Lyrics. .
You’re not alone
Together we stand
I’ll be by your side
You know I’ll take your hand
When it gets cold
And it feels like the end
There’s no place to go
You know I won’t give in
no I won’t give in
Keep holdin’ on
Cause you know we’ll make it through
We’ll make it through
Just, stay strong
Cause you know I’m here for you
I’m here for you
There’s nothing you can say (repeat)
Nothing you can do(repeat whole line)
there’s no other way when it comes to the truth
So, keep holding on
Cause you know we’ll make it through
We’ll make it through
So far away
I wish you were here
Before it’s too late
This could all disappear
Before the doors close
And it comes to an end
With you by my side
I will fight and defend ah ah
I’ll fight and defend, yeah, yeah
Keep holdin’ on
Cause you know we’ll make it through
We’ll make it through
Just, stay strong
Cause you know I’m here for you
I’m here for you
There’s nothing you could say
Nothing you could do
There’s no other way when it comes to the truth
So, keep holding on
Cause you know we’ll make it through
We’ll make it through
Hear me when I say
When I say I believe
Nothing’s gonna change
Nothing’s gonna change destiny
Whatever’s meant to be
Will work out perfectly
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah….
La da da da, la da da da da
La da da da da da da da da
Keep holdin’ on
Cause you know we’ll make it through
We’ll make it through
Just stay strong
Cause you know I’m here for you
I’m here for you
There’s nothing you could say
Nothing you could do
There’s no other way when it comes to the truth
So, keep holding on
Cause you know we’ll make it through
We’ll make it through
Ahh, ahh
Keep holdin’ on
Ahh, ahh
Keep holdin’ on
There’s nothing you could say
Nothing you could do
There’s no other way when it comes to the truth
So, keep holding on
Cause you know we’ll make it through
We’ll make it through

Bennett,
Hello buddy, just wanted to let you know you were on my mind sooo much this morning while I was getting ready for work that I had a MAJOR blonde moment!
You’ll like this one! So I remembered I had a dentist appointment this morning and called in work. I go to the dentist office, sit down & wait about 10 minutes. Then Pam at the office said “Tammi, what are you doing here? We don’t have you down until NEXT Tuesday!”
So see, you’re on my mind soooooo much that I can’t think! Anyway, I hope my true story made you laugh. I felt like a bonehead! ha ha
We’re all thinking of you and your family & praying all through the day. Keep up the good work on fighting this battle!!! I’m having a little something delivered to you at the hospital in a few days! Hope it makes you laugh!!!!!!!!
Tammi Kink
Hey Bennett , I dont know if you remember me but my name is Chelsey Greenwood and you come to our basketball practices with tyler sometimes. Well i hope you get better and God is goin to get through this with you. Bennett i am keepin you in my prayers and so is everyone else.Well I hope you get well soon.

Hey, Bennett Its me again i was just checking on you i saw on your website that you said the food was good there i always thought it would be GROSS. I thought it was kind funny that some one ask you about the food, anyway i just want to say you are still in my prayers and get better soon.
Love Ya, Brooke Docherty
Bennett,
It really is a small world. I was standing behind you in the snack line at the show a week or so ago, on a Sunday. We saw Ghost Rider, is that what you saw? Anyway, I was with two eighth grade girls (I have an eighth grade son) from Christopher who know Tyler Leffler. They mentioned that you were a friend of his and that your name was Bennett. Well, I work at Rend Lake College and am in a MOMS group with Trudee Wynn (Bailey’s mom.) At our Wednesday meeting she asked for prayer for a boy from Benton named Bennett (cool name by the way) and she told us your story. I don’t believe in coincidence; those girls (Leanna Burkitt and Hope Valette) mentioned your name so that I would recognize you when Trudee shared your news with us, and now I just wanted to let you know that you are in my prayers. Be strong —
To Bennett’s Mom: I have special prayers for you—for strength (of mind and body), courage, understanding, patience. As mothers we need these virtues on the best of days, I can only imagine how you need them now. I’ll be thinking of you often. Take care.
Jo Dick
Cindy,
I don’t know if Sid & Hamilton would like to come over one nite for dinner, but tell Sid to call us we would love to have them over. Or if he’s home & doesn’t feel like company, can I bring something to him? Just let me know ok. Bet you’re tired. I wish I could take your worry away, but just know that God is with you all right now. Our family will continue to pray for you all.
Just want you to know I love ya Cindy. Let me know if I can bring u anything. Clothes, anything? This web-site is WONDERFUL! Jeremy has out done himself!
The Kink’s

The Crawford family
Bennett, I was checking out your website which I am very impressed with and I read something that Ryne Roper wrote about. I remember when Cody and you collided during a baseball game. I thought that you had been KNOCKED OUT!! The nurse in me kicked in and I went to check on you as you and Cody layed pretty lifeless in the outfield!? You said your head was fine however the rest of you was not at all fine!!! I just want you to know that you and your family are on my mind alot and I will continue to pray for you all. This webstie is a true testimony to the number of people who love and care about you. Keep your chin up!!! Kelly
Hi Bennett, It’s J.R. and Zach’s grandma again. Hope you are feeling good and they are giving you good food that you like. Tell your mom hi for me and if there is anything I can do, please let me know. We are praying for you every day.

Hey Bennett! ive never met you, but i think you kno my brother Hunter. I guess you guys played paint ball together! But i want you to know that this is hard! i have the same leukemia! and i am 21! So dont get down! you gotta be strong and know that you are gonna fight til you cant fight anymore! Appreciate all the wonderful people around you cause they are going through a rough time too! but hey we got the crap end of the deal huh? I was thinkin about what to say to you and all i kept thinking about was how i felt when they first told me about my leukemia. Its hard to believe its really happening to you,right? but you realize fast that its not a joke and that its for real. You are gonna have days that i wish you wouldnt have to go through, but chances are slim. I was most concerned about losing my hair which im sure thats not one of your top concerns being male and all. The stats are in your fav and you are gonna make it! Think of it as a baseball game… every second counts. every point counts. just gotta be more stubborn than the poison they put in our bodies. Keep your head up high, never be embarrased! You will realize how many people are out there that are thinking about you everyday. If you ever need anthing, even if you just wanna pick my brain, your more that welcome and i would love to answer questions for you. The more educated you are about your medicines and treatment plan, the better you will feel. Im in the hospital as im writing this… but guess what? my taps are clean now. i might still have to fight, but someone else is fighting with me! TO your parents! You dont kno how much of an impact you are going to have on the outcome of Bennett! Be strong and supportive! My parents would be more that willing to sit and talk with you, as would I. GOod luck to your whole family!!! Your in my prayers!!! Keep me in yours!!
Mackenzie
P.S. Its OK to cry!!!
Hey Bennett! This is Olivia, from Sesser. I just wanted you 2 know that I’m praying for you and that God will help you through this!
Get Well Soon!!
Hey Bennett, Hope your havin’ a good day today. This site has been great to keep everybody up to date. Sounds like you are getting some good news.
Just wanted to let you and your family know you are all in our prayers.
Keep up the fight!
Darren, Stephanie, Curtis, & Spencer
oh Bennett! You are the strongest kid that I know! You dont even know how much you are loved and everyone misses you! Look at all your comments kid! whenever you are feelings down just know that here in Benton everyone cares about you and they will always be here for you no matter what! I am praying for you! You will beat this and next year you will be a big bad 8th grader and you are gunna be a total chick magnet and its gunna be the time of your life! so keep your head up because everything is going to be okay!
I just wanted to let you know that Carly, Brant, Travis and I have been praying for you and your family every day. I pray for peace and comfort during this difficult time.
Jo Dick, it is a small world as I was with Bennett at the movies that Sunday to see Ghost Rider. Bennett and I went together. It’s one of our favorite things to do together. That afternoon Bennett mentioned to me that he knew your girls and that they were from Christopher on Tim’s basketball team. We did see Ghost Rider that day too and we thought it was just ok. Maybe next time we see ya, we’ll say hey, didn’t know you worked at RLC with Trud. Thanks for your thoughtfulness. Cindy Page
You and your family are in our constant thoughts and prayers as well as the entire K-4. I have had many people ask how you are doing and if you, brother, mom or dad need anything (I will give them this website). Please let us know if there is anything we can do or get for you. We miss you and give mom a big hug from all the PTO girls.
Heather, Chad, and Logan Threlkeld
Hey Bennett,
We are thinking of you always and praying daily. Keep a good attitude and an optimistic outlook, each day you are in St. Louis is one day closer to getting back home. Hang in there and get well soon.
Dave, Julie, Emily and Derek

Good morning Bennett,
I was reading your updates this morning and saw where you have a few procedures tomorrow. I’m in Florida right now visiting my sister and thought of you when we drove by a sign on a local church.
“DO NOT BE AFRAID OF TOMORROW, GOD IS ALREADY THERE”
Something to think about.
Thinking of and praying for you and your family often.
Becky Harben

Ok Bennett, here is a joke you told me fOREVER ago at Learn and Play, thought it might make you smile… I still crack up when I think about it…
“How do you make a Kleenex dance?”
You put a little “boogie” in it!
Have a good day!
Hey Bennett, we just want you to know that we are thinking of you and praying everyday. We’ve read that you will be having a hard day tomorrow, and just know that God is in control.
Cindy, although it is Bennett that is going through this, I know that what you are going through, as his mother is significant. I know that ist is mentally tiring for you. Its a hard thing to watch your child go through all this and theres not one thing you can do or you would. I know your heart is breaking everyday, every hour. Its ok to cry and to lean on people, because if you dont, you will sink into yourself. I especially pray for you and your strength.
Hey Bennett, just wanted to let you know that we are thinking of you and that you are
in our daily prayers. I miss seeing you running around outside in the yard. HANG IN THERE AND GET WELL REAL SOON! Say HI to your mon for me.
William, Michele, James and Mark.
Bennett,
Hey Buddy, I hear you’re being really brave and strong–I had no doubt!! We are thinking about you all the time and sending super good vibes your way. Hang in there and hopefully healthful progress will just keep on coming!! You and your Mom and the rest of the crew let us know if we can help in any way up there or here–we’re ready at a moments notice!! Thanks for keeping us updated–we miss you! Take care and stay strong!
Love, Kim, Scott, Nate and Jesse
Hi Bennett, just wanted to let you know that we are thinking and praying for you. I have been reading on your site, sounds like you are going to be missing alot of school. Too bad it wasnt under other circumstances, uh!
Hi Cindy, sounds like you have plenty of support but if we can do anything let us know.
Love, Cory,Julie,Shelby and Cole
Hi Bennett — just want you to know that you’re in our thoughts and prayers and also that there are many people in Bowling Green, KY praying for you as well! Make sure your Mom is behaving and tell her if she needs anything at all to just let me know.

Bennett: We’ve been praying for you and your family everyday. I hope your tests go well tomorrow. God promises to never give us more than we can handle, so stay positive and know that there are A LOT of people praying for you and supporting you!
Bennett and Cindy:
Just wanted to let you know that we are thinking of you daily. The first thing I do each morning when I get to work is check your website to get an update. What a great resource to have to keep the lines of communication open between you and all of your supporters. I want you to know that our extended families are praying for your family. Jeff’s family in Harrisburg has you on their prayer lists at church, and my mom in Cincinnati has you on their prayer list at her church. I’m a firm believer that things always happen for a reason. I know this is a tough time for you but as I read through this website, I can see the impact that this is having on a lot of young people. Hopefully, this will make them realize that if they do not already have God in their lives, that they surely need him. What a tribute to Bennett if young people come to know the lord because of his example. Stay strong and just know that God is with you always. Bennett, Coach Roper used to have a saying printed on the high school baseball team shirts that read: Ranger Baseball, determined every out, inning, game. Basically, that means stay determined every step of the way. You are a part of the Ranger Baseball family and we will all stay determined every out, inning and game with you.
Diana Roper
Hey Bennett you don’t know me but i have heard a lot about you. I hope you feal better we
all hope you get better by.
Hey Bennett we are all taking turns checking out your site ,it is so cool! We are all praying daily for you and your family, we think you are all so strong. We do have a complaint to file with you , the picture with the hot nurse! We all thought we were the hot women in your life, we are jealous you have replaced us !!! Miss you lots! the staff at Salon 34, we love you too Cindy
Bennett,
I think your dog friend is so cool! He looks like he is at home with you! I am praying for good results from your tests today so maybe you and mom can get home. Keep eatin no matter what it is really important!
I was reading a verse today and thought of you, it is in Philippians 4: 4-7 It says: Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Regoice! Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near. Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. and peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. So don’t forget don’t worry let God have control of this situation and he will lead you thru! Stay strong!!!! Myrna
hey bennett!! glad to see you feel better
i hope u can come home
:) a few people shaved their heads for ya…… ~later~ Brooke Jones
Hey Bennett,
Just want to let you know that we are checking up on you every day. We read your latest update and hope that God continues to answer the many prayers for your good test results. We are keeping you in our prayers. Stay strong and stay positive
Hey Bennett, Was going on man? well we are in tennessee and we are thinking about you. I hope those tests come back good so you can come back to Benton. My Dad said anytime you want hooters wings he’ll get them. haha well i just wanted you to know our in our prayers and we love ya.
Love,
Cody,Denny,Marya,Peyton
Hi Bennett,
I just wanted to let you know that you are in my thoughts and prayers. You have a lot of people who care about you and are praying for a quick recovery. The website is great! Take care and I will talk to you soon.
T McCollum
Hi Bennett, So glad to hear you and mom are at home with dad and Hamilton. I know everyone is glad to hear this good news. We are still thinking about you and praying for you and your family. This website is awesome!
Great update!!! Congratulations!!! and Welcome Home Bennett & Cindy! We’ll keep praying!
Welcome Home Bennett!!! glad to see ya getting better very quikly…:) ~ later~
Hey Bennett,
I’m glad to see that you made it home. I just wanted to let you know that we miss you in 5th Hour Social Studies. Keep on hanging in there. We are praying for you at our church. Hope to see you soon!
Welcome home Bennett!
Praise God for answered prayers. So glad you are home and can sleep in your own bed for a change. I imagine they’ve told you this, but the chemo will make you very sleepy. I can remember sleeping for almost 36 hours straight about a week after my treatments. Knowing that tiredness is one of the symptoms of your disease, don’t think it still has a hold of you–it’s probably the chemo.
Don’t try to do too much and just take one day at a time. You are a very brave young man and lucky to have such a great family and many friends praying for you.
Welcome home to you, too, Cindy!
Becky Harben
Bennett,
This was the news I was hoping to hear!!!!! We just got home and I sat down at the computer to check your website for an update on your tests. I was so excited to see that you had come home last night. I guess that means your tests results were all good. Praise the Lord for answering our prayers!
Get plenty of rest and do what the Doctors have told you to do. We hope to see you out and about really soon!

Cindy- Hey! This is Schelly Smiley. I am so glad that Bennett got to come home. GREAT NEWS! I wanted you and your family to know that I think about all of you each day. Ashley my youngest daughter went through this treatment about 6 years ago. She askes me all the time about Bennett and if I have heard how things are going. Ashley tells people that God made her better. She never thinks about all the medicine she took, but God did it. Just remember that all things are possible with God. I can tell you right now that GOD will get you through this. Prayer is a powerful thing. Hang in there. Your in our thoughts and prayers. The Smiley’s

Hello Bennett:
You don’t know me but I knew your dad many years ago (25 to be exact). I saw an article in the Benton Evening News about your friends shaving their heads in support of you. What a wonderful thing. Anyway, just wanted to tell you that you are in my thoughts and prayers and will continue to be.
Hey Bennett- I know your tests are going to go great tomorrow! I’ll be thinking about you !

Tonya, Rod, Seiger, Sayler and Macy
Thank you to everyone for the overwhelming support to Bennett and our family. Bennett and I read the comments together. Sometimes we cry and sometimes we laugh. It is very touching that so many have reached out to us through this website, through a card, or by gifts. Thanks to everyone that have brought by food or groceries, This is the best home cooking we have had in weeks!
Keep us in your thoughts and prayers as we had back to St. Louis Childrens Hospital for a check of his blood cell count in the morning.
Cindy
I was just heading off to bed & thought I would check your web-site before I did so. Cindy, I didn’t want to call you AGAIN & bug you. I’ll be praying that your test results turn out positive tomorrow Bennett. It was really great seeing you on Saturday. Cindy thanks again for letting Kyle come over on Saturday. He had a great time & misses his buddy! Please call me when you get a chance & let me know another nite I can bring food over this week.
Just letting you all know each one of you are in our prayers through the day.
P.S. Bennett, have Kyle to tell you about the Miami University Tennis Team! Kyle, Mason & Trey wanted them to autograph their head! ha ha
Tammi, Kevin, Kyle & Lauren
