Michael Ryan Bennitt

Hello, my name is Kara Bennitt. First and foremost I would like to thank everyone for the love and support that has been given to me and my family during this difficult time.

As some of you may know Tuesday, August 29, Mike Bennitt unexpectedly passed away at the age of 47. His family faces the great tragedy of this unexpected loss with incredibly heavy hearts and unimaginable grief. His passing left behind our son Ryan who just turned 16. Losing a dad so unexpectedly is something unimaginable, and something that will never be healed. Ryan has lost a father who was not only a dad, but an amazing friend. Mike’s greatest love and achievement was Ryan.

Everyone that knew Mike agrees that he was an incredible person, an amazing father, and just an all-around good guy with a big heart. Ryan was his world, and he will never be the same without his dad.

Mike’s focus was on staying involved in Ryan’s life to make sure he was raised in the most loving and supportive way possible, with every opportunity available. But his passing left an extreme hardship in reaching the goals he was working so hard to achieve for his son. As all of the financial responsibilities have now shifted, any support that you can provide would go a long way to help towards the costs for his memorial arrangement, and more importantly,

to help achieve Mike’s goals for Ryan’s future, and honor his memory.
