Maureen Bennett
July 6, 1939 — February 25, 2013
Our beloved Maureen (Mary), surrounded by her family, peacefully passed away on Monday, February 25, 2013. The Lord chose this day to reunite a loving mother with her deceased son, Sean, on his birthday. Maureen was born in London England of Irish born parents, Frank and Margaret Dixon. Maureen was very proud of her English and Irish heritage. She was never happier than when everyone was at her house for a sing-song or when she was playing her Irish music with her family. Maureen was preceded in death by her beloved son, Sean and her parents, Frank and Margaret Dixon. She is survived by her husband, Leland Bennett of San Antonio. Daughter Jacqueline (Gary) Peters of Luton, England. Sons Bill (Michelle) Gabbard, Michael (Francine) Gabbard, Step daughters Michelle Greer and Rebecca Bennett all of San Antonio.

Grandchildren, Chris, Stacy, Joshua, Kevin, Carly, Ryan and Adam. She will also be dearly missed by her great-grandchildren, nephews and nieces in Texas, England, Oklahoma and Alabama. Maureen was loved by all that knew her and she never met a stranger. Our hearts are broken, but; her heart is now at peace with her son, Sean. We all love you our sweet Maureen.
