Hi, my name is Kira Benitez. I’m 17 years old and my dad is Sijifredo Benitez who was 36 years old. He was a beloved son, dad, uncle, friend and more. It hurts my heart to say he passed away March 2nd, 2023.

Anybody who spoke to my dad knew how loving, respectful, and a good father he was. My family and I feel heartbroken and devastated with his unexpected death. No words can explain how I feel. He had so much planned ahead of him.

Donations will go toward properly honoring my dad. Anything will help and make a huge difference. I would like to use some funds in making this as best as I can for my dad, such as making shirts in his memory, his suit and additional expenses.

Any donations are greatly appreciated. His family and friends thank you immensely for all your condolences, love and support.

THANK YOU to everyone that donated to the GoFundMe I made for my dad. I am sincerely grateful for the love, support and prayers our family has received. No words could ever express what we’re feeling, but we just want you all to know that we love and appreciate you all for being there for us. My dad was so special to me and never imagined a life without him. His last days with us he was talking about what he had planned for the future. Please continue to keep us in your thoughts and prayers.
