Benjamin Michael Knutter was born sleeping on Wednesday, January 25, 2023. He was delivered into the world at 7:05 P.M. at AdventHealth Shawnee Mission in Merriam, KS. He will be laid to rest on his due date on Friday, February 3, 2023 at 10 A.M. at Resurrection Catholic Cemetery in Lenexa, KS.


He was born the son of Tyra P. Anders and Aaron Michael Knutter, and the baby brother to his two year old sister Palmer.


Benjamin was an active and healthy baby boy who enjoyed mommy’s tummy rubs, kicking to his sister’s laugh, and 3AM snacks. He was 7lbs 2.8oz and 20” long when he arrived on his own at 38 weeks and 5 days. He will forever be a beautiful baby boy asleep in his mother’s arms.


“If I could, I would go back in time. I would do all this just to feel you move again, just to see your face again, just to hold you in my arms again. Even if it was only for a day.

If I could go back and endure the pain of your death and the sorrow of your loss, I would, because I would get experience the love that you gave me all over again, in its rawest, most beautiful form.

I would still choose you, for you chose me, so therefore I would and will always choose you, my darling son.”
