A young death is excruciatingly terrible; there is nothing more sad than hearing of a life cut short. This Georgia family has suffered tremendous grief that will be difficult to overcome.
The Bennetts were anticipating and organizing the first birthday of their twins, who had just been a year old on November 12, 2022. Obviously, any child’s first birthday is cause for celebration, and this was no exception.
However, the family had no idea that catastrophe was about to hit.
The local fire department was notified of a fire in the neighborhood about 3:25 a.m. on Sunday. The fire service immediately doused the fire after racing to the scene.
Sadly, the twin newborns were killed in the fire. The family did not give the kids names to the media, yet did tell that they were twins who had just turned a year old.
The twins’ parents were in the midst of organizing their first birthday, which occurred a few days ago, according to the family.
The fire marshal for the state ruled that the incident was entirely accidental.
Logan Bennett, the twins’ elder sister, started a GoFundMe campaign to assist pay for end-of-life bills and other fees that emerge after someone’s death. Anything will help them as they endure this time, she wrote.
She also highlighted her younger siblings and how “much loved and missed they are.”
She added that the funeral is free of charge, however the family is searching for financial assistance in other areas following the death of the kids. When the organizer stopped the contribution page, around $5,319 were raised.
It is devastating to read about the deaths of children, particular when they are newborns. We hope this family well and pray that they are able to heal from this heinous experience!
