Jackson Michael Bennett was born on Thursday, September 19, 2019 at 12:43 pm to parents Michael and Cassie Bennett at Franciscan Health Lafayette East. He weighed 4lbs 15 ounces and was 17 inches long, had a head full of wavy dark blonde hair, and the cutest smirk ever seen.
Jackson’s family was blessed with nearly six hours with Jackson before he peacefully went to his heavenly home at 6:38pm while resting on his mommy’s chest. Jackson was able to experience holding hands with his mommy and daddy, hugs and kisses from his family, listening to mommy sing him lullabies, and knew nothing but love in his brief time here.
He is loved on earth by his parents Michael and Cassie (Clevenger) Bennett, big sister Stella Bennett, grandparents Paul and Donna Clevenger, Charles (Rick) and Paula Bennett, Uncle Matthew (Valerie) Bennett, great grandmothers Carol Smith and Sandra Bennett, several cousins and great aunts and uncles.
He was greeted in Heaven by his uncles Jeremy and Kraig Fitzgerald, his dog Dolly, and Great Grandparents: Herman Smith, Charles (Dick) Bennett, Marion Clevenger, Katherine Clevenger, and Donald Jackson Sr.
An intimate memorial will be held for Jackson on November 15, 2019 at the Wildcat Conservation Club of Mulberry.
In lieu of flowers or donations, please read your child that extra book, take that picture, let your child stay up late just this one time, or create a new memory.
The family would like to extend gratitude to the doctors and nurses of Franciscan Health Lafayette East for their compassion and support.
