It is with GREAT Sadness that we mention the passing of Curt Bench, who died 8-18-21 from aneurysm. Curt was the founder of Benchmark Books and GREAT FRIEND of the Mormon literature and book community. Curt was a mentor to many, he had a wonderful sense of humor, and was always willing to share his vast knowledge of Mormon history, literature and books. He will be GREATLY missed. Our condolences to the Bench family and the Benchmark Books team.
