Luvicie "Vicie" Delle (Tennyson) Bennett, 67, passed away at her home Sunday Jan. 16, 2022. 

She was born on Jan. 5, 1955, in Richmond, MO to the late Mary Jane and Harold N. Tennyson. She was united in marriage to Fred L. Bennett on June 16, 1973. 

Vicie enjoyed cooking and baking for her family. She cherished having friends and family over for celebrations. She had a love for all of her pets, especially her pug, Cookie. Vicie was a truly loving and caring friend, daughter, sister, wife, mother, aunt, and grandmother. She was such a compassionate person and mother that she opened her home and heart to many of her children's friends. Vicie welcomed them with open arms when these kids needed shelter, love, a listening ear, sound advice or a home-cooked meal. She was such a beautiful, loving soul, she treated everyone like her own. Vicie had a way about her that brightened the room when she shared a smile and laugh with you. She is dearly missed and loved! 

She is survived by her husband, Fred L. Bennett; three children, sons Jason Bennett and wife Marjorie, and Justin Bennett; daughter, Echo Bond and husband Andrew; six grandchildren, McKinley Bennett, Madison Noel Bennett, Brooke Bennett, Bennett Bond, Griffin Bond, and William Bond; brother, Harold N. Tennyson Jr. and wife Sandy; sister, Karen Clark and husband Bill; nephew, Christopher Tennyson; nieces, Alexandra Clark and Lillian Bennett; her best friend, Deby Musick; and her beloved dog, Lucky.

A ceremony in celebration of her life will be announced at a later date.
