Benowain (Billington) Burrus

Benowain and I met when we both attended Larmar Elementary school and became best friends when we found that we both also attended 9th and Columbia Church of Christ. We were almost inseparable during our growing up years but unfortunately our talents took us in different directions when we reached High School. Her beautiful voice led her to participate in choir and I was in the band. Consequently we were never in any class together. We both married our high school sweethearts which also led us in different directions. We tried to keep in touch over the years but my greatest regret was that we didn't do a very good job of it. However we did reconnect in later years and found that this kind of friendship never fades.

Prayers for Tom, and all of your family. Benowain was a very special person.

To Tom and Family,

I will miss my best friend.I sure loved that lady.
We always had so much fun together. She would drive and I would read the Map.
We managed to laugh all the time.

She will always be my BFF.

Love to all of you,
Nancy

I prayed every day for a peaceful death...God willing that is what happened. We will be out of town Dec. 1st. But my heart will be there. I loved Benowain very much and Tom, my prayers are with you. Love, Pat
