To The Kelly family, I extend my deepest sympathies. I am saddened to hear of Bennie's passing. My heartfelt condolences, thoughts and prayers go out to your family during this difficult time. I will always remember Bennie as one of the most caring and loving people to come into my life. His smile, sense of humor, laugh, great stories of his past, learning about his ancestry and all the new things he was finding out on the computer kept me amazed and entertained. I always looked forward to family functions so I could sit and talk with him and his beautiful wife Louise. He had a zest for life that was contagious. He will be forever in my heart, for he was one of the special ones. Until we meet again, may God hold you in the palm of his hand.
