Hello I was born in Topeka Kansas in 1967 I am a african american female. My birth name was Becky Benson. Do you know any african american Benson in Topeka KS?
In 1962 my mother originaly purchased this home at 3542 N. 60th Street. For 42 years that was my home. In fact it was the only home I ever knew. My mother built the rock walls at the bottom of the driveway. For the past three years I have had 100 dreams in which my mother and I still lived there. I was in the neighborhood today and took a drive down the dead end street just to see if anyone was living there. There were two bedroom windows upstairs with no curtains hanging in the window. I could clearly tell the house did not have anyone living there. I pulled in the driveway, went to the front door, and rang the door bell. I went next door to say high to the woman that moved there just three or four months before my mom bought her house. She was still very much grief stricken and in total shock at the events that occured. She said never in a million years would she have thought the "so very sweet family" that lived there capeable of such a tragedy. The other neighbors that I talked to said the exact thing, and all of them are still grieving the loss of a "very beautiful woman's life. What makes me so sad is the innocent children (that called 911 sfter hearing the gunshots) and the rest of their life they will have to live now WITHOUT THEIR MOM. He had absolutely NO RIGHT to shoot and kill her, and HE HAD NO RIGHT TO TAKE HER FROM THOSE INNOCENT CHRILDREN.
