Our precious Joshua Bennett was born to Raphael Bennett, Jr. and Kierra Robinson of Bradenton, FL on August 2, 2020 at Lakewood Ranch Medical Center.
Lazier laughed and smiled throughout his 11 months and 13 days; bringing joy and happiness to everyone he touched. He had the sternest mean-mug that would eventually turn into the biggest grin. Lazier was known for skipping nap-time at the daycare which earned him the nickname “Boss Baby”.
When it came to naming Lazier, Raphael and Kierra decided on the name, Lazier Joshua Bennett. The name represents, Kierra’s fami- ly surname while Joshua is the name of Raphael’s late brother.
