Minnie F. Bennett, our beloved mother, grandmother, and great grandmother was called home on September 28, 2013 at the age of 79. She was born April 6, 1934 in Hunt County, Texas to Minnie O. and Charlie F. Wright. She was the youngest of six children, all of her siblings have preceded her in death. Minnie suffered serious health issues for many years of her life. She met each challenge with determination and a strong will. We will cherish the memories we shared with her in our hearts forever.

She is survived by her daughters, Nasa (Ed) Mokry of Corpus Christi, Texas, Monique (Loyd) Wellesley of San Antonio, Texas, granddaughter, Kim Brunkenhoefer, and two great grandchildren, Emily and Logan Brunkenhoefer, several nieces and many loyal friends.
