A student favorite since he came to 黑料网 in 2004, Bennett was known for his deep interest in the lives of young people that extended far beyond the classroom. 鈥淗e cared so well,鈥� wrote 2017 graduate Corrie Mahr. 鈥淚鈥檓 beyond thankful for his life, for the meaningful conversations, for laughter-filled classes, for ice cream runs instead of finals, and for a figure who was a mentor and friend to each of his students.鈥�
A memorial service was held May 28 at Bethany Church in Canby, Oregon. Bennett is survived by his wife and four daughters.
