Bennett Matthew Kliethermes

Bennett Matthew Kliethermes, our precious angel, was born into heaven Friday, September 10, 2021, at SSM St. Mary's, Jefferson City, Missouri. He will live on through his parents, Matthew and Emily (Wilson) Kliethermes, who adored the thought of him; and his siblings, Ellie and Linley Kliethermes, who had big plans for him. Bennett is also survived by his grandparents, Brenda Wilson, David and Chris Wilson, and Steve and Cindy Kliethermes; his great-grandparents, Sharon Ralston and Sandy Kliethermes; his uncle, Jesse Wilson; his aunt, Brittney Kliethermes (Joey Blankenship); his cousins, Lucas and Carter Blankenship; and many others who were ready to welcome him into this world. Bennett was preceded in death by an angel sibling; his great-grandparents, Leander and Viola Volmert, Bill and Patsy Wilson, Everett Ralston and Norbert Kliethermes. The family would like to extend a special thank you to Dr. Brandi Nichols, M.D., FACOG, and the staff at SSM St. Mary's for their incredible care provided during such a heartbreaking time. "Some people only dream of angels, we held one in our arms." A private graveside service will be held Friday, September 17, 2021, for Bennett's family at Resurrection Cemetery with the Reverend Father Roberto Ike officiating.
