To all who have followed this blog over the years,
It is with a heavy heart that I share that my father, David Benning, passed away following a tragic automobile accident on 07 October.
For those of you who have followed his writing over the years, you know that this blog was one of the many ways Dad shared his thoughts, interests, creativity, and reflections with others. He was a gifted writer, and writing was something he genuinely loved. Whether sharing his thoughts, exploring an idea, or putting another story into words, he found joy in creating and sharing his work.
As his son, I've had the privilege of seeing that creativity firsthand throughout my life. Dad was always writing something, and his imagination seemed to have no shortage of ideas. His writing was an important part of who he was, and I'm grateful that he leaves behind so much of his work for others to enjoy.
While there will be no further posts to this blog, I hope you will continue to enjoy and revisit the things he has shared here over the years. His words will remain, even though he is no longer here to add to them.
Most importantly, Dad was a man of faith. His faith in Jesus Christ shaped the way he lived, the way he served others, and the way he approached life. On the evening of the accident, he had been serving the church family, playing music and worshipping the Lord he loved. The hope he held throughout his life is now his reality, as he is in glory, enjoying the eternal presence of his Savior.
On behalf of our family, thank you to everyone who has read, followed, encouraged, or enjoyed his writing over the years. Your interest in his work meant a great deal, and we are grateful that a part of his life and creativity has reached so many people.
With gratitude,
Nathaniel Benning
On behalf of the Benning family
