Where to even begin? No parent should have to bury their child much less two.  But this is exactly the tragic reality for my friend Allison Benton and her beautiful family.  Allison sent her husband and 3 boys on a father son hunting trip to celebrate Christmas Eve.  Her eldest son Antonie was driving in a separate truck with 7 year old Eli when a vehicle driving in the opposite direction crossed the yellow line, hitting them head on and taking the life of Antonie upon impact.  EMT’s and First Responders fought for Eli however at 7:59pm Christmas Eve night, little Eli gained his wings with his brother.  Antonie had a small family of his own while Eli’s life was just beginning.   We have one of the best communities and I have seen first hand what our community is capable of.   No amount of money will bring Antonie and Eli back but it will help to offer their mom and dad a very small peace of mind.   It will help to ensure that Antonie and Eli be laid to rest without financial worry.   If you are able, please donate as anything helps.  If you’re unable to,  you can still help by sharing this go fund me.  Christmas will never be the same for this wonderful family.
