Benda was the youngest of three children born to Brynhild and Anders Eidem at the family farm close to Marietta, MN. Anders was my g.g.g.uncle.

Benda earned a teaching degree and taught school all her working life, the last couple of decades in Rochester, MN.

Benda was a talented, wonderful woman who treasured her family history. She wrote to relatives in Norway every year, since her childhood. She was fluent in Norwegian and English; her parents both immigrated from Norway.

Benda never married. She cared for her half-sister, Oline, for 20 years; and their mother previous to that, until each died.
