On July 4, 1970 we celebrated Steve’s birthday at the Jenness’ lakeside home. John Dan (age eleven) and I decorated a birthday cake and made party hats from newspapers for Benton-Coffey relatives—maybe forty of them. That blue-eyed Steve Frank Benton was welcomed with open arms. We all stood at the lakeside around him as he blew out the candles and sang a Happy Birthday.
Everyone remembers that first family reunion—1970.
