2005 Death: 11-20-2005 of Point Pleasant, Mason Co., WVA.

2005 Obit: Point Pleasant Register/November 23, 2005

Myrtle L. Bennett, age 94, left this life for a better one early in the morning of Sunday, Nov. 20, 2005. 

A Pleasant Valley Nursing home resident for eight years, she was a patient at Pleasant Valley Hospital at the time of death. 

Bennett was born on July 22, 1911, on Cow Creek in Putnam County, the daughter of the late Riley Crocket and Laura Jane Poff Simpkins. 

In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by her beloved husband, Frank Richard Bennett Jr., and their sons, James Franklin and Paul Ray. Others preceding her were brothers, Carl Clay, Forest Vernon, Oscar Glenn and an unnamed infant sister, Anna Laura Watkins. Also, an infant granddaughter, Latisha Renee Jones. 

Family left behind are son, John Leslie (Jane) Bennett; daughters, Lois (Dayton) Shinn and Jean Swanson; grandchildren, Rebecca (Vernon) Keefer, Roger (Khristina) Shinn, Curtis (Ruth Ann) Shinn, Byron (Tammi) Shinn, Frank Joseph (Krissine) Bennett and Rhonda Rae Fournier of Arizona, Chrystal Blankenship of Huntington, CWO 2 John Richard (Melissa) Swanson and Bobbi Ann Gaul; great-grandchildren, Randall (Delana) Keefer, Paige (Keith) Adkins, Myra Dawn (Robert) Hoffman, Jared Shinn, Micah (Susan) Shinn, Emily Carpenter, Joshua Shinn, Katy Shinn, Noah Dayton Shinn, Robert, Alan and Scott Prisco, Sharon Elizabeth McClarty, twins Harry and Thomas Fournier of Arizona, Samuel, KC and Jason Gaul and Julia Swanson; great-great-grandchildren, Zachary Keith and Sydney Paige Adkins, Benjamin Keefer, Cameron and MacKenzie Grace Hoffman; special nieces, Myrtle Simpkins Watson of Columbus and Mary Wilcoxen of Point Pleasant; special grand-nephews, Mike Bennett of Grafton and Carl Swisher of Point Pleasant; and sister-in-law, Helen Bennett Edwards of Point Pleasant. Other loved nieces and nephews too numerous to mention and many precious family and in-law connections. 

Bennett was first of all a Christian who loved her God and His church. She was a dedicated and faithful member of the First Church of the Nazarene in Point Pleasant as long as her health permitted and had been a devoted helpmate to her husband during his years of ministry in local country churches such as Shiloh, Creston and Tabor. 

She continued to participate in church services at the nursing home and enjoyed sharing the gift of poetry that God had given to her. 

She began writing poetry at the age of 10 and blessed many with her readings of the same. She was awarded a Poetry Award of which we were all proud. 

She loved music and played many instruments including the piano, accordion, harmonica and pump organ during her youth. 

Bennett was the last charter member of Mason County Chapter No. 3192 of the AARP. She was also a member of the Fort Randolph Quilters for many years. 

We will miss her but would not wish her back from her long-awaited journey. Instead, we will cherish the time we had together and live to meet her some day. 

In The Master's Hand Jesus did not withdraw in disdain, From the halt, lame, or blind; He stretched forth a healing hand, Also gave peace of mind. He had compassion on the poor As he walked beside the way; Holding five loaves and two fish He looked upward to pray. Twelve baskets of fragments remained After 5,000 men were fed; Little became much in His Hands As He blessed and broke the bread. Whatever talent you process However small it seems; Placed in the Master's Hand Will increase beyond your dreams. by Myrtle L. Bennett
