Thomas Orson "Tommy" Bentley passed away on February 14, 2023. He was born on November 7, 2007, the son of Debbie (Christensen) and Anthony Earl Bentley.

Tommy suffered from many ailments due to a rare genetic mutation that left him completely disabled with no ability to speak. However, he would hum precious notes when he was happy – especially around lights, music and people who loved him. Tommy lived a life without sin but is now free from his disabled body.

He was preceded in death by his grandparents, LaVer Walser Bentley and Bernice (Brooksby) and Ortho Christensen; uncle, Richard LaVer Bentley; aunt, Susan Christensen; and cousins: Vanessa Bentley, Leah Bartlett, Emma Burton, Emily Gubler, Aaron and Shane Christensen

Tommy is survived by his parents, Debbie (Christensen) and Anthony Earl Bentley; eight siblings: David Anthony, Allen Joseph, Julianna, Christena, Maria, Charles Walter, James Earl, and Samuel Ivins; his grandmother, Eva Elaine (Richardson) Bentley; and nieces and nephews: Jacob, Eliott, Summer, Vanessa, Savanna, Lora, Henry, Haven, and Roslyn.

Pallbearers were: David Bentley, Allen Bentley, James Bentley, Samuel Bentley, Travis Oldham, and Jeffery Whittington.
