We went to school together from since the first grade and double dated with Sherry Bowden and Shirley carpenter.
We use to go fishing and camping for years. As time went by and after leaving Ocoee 14 years ago we kinda drifted apart but you will always be in the fondest of memories

Hi, it has been many years since I have seen Bennie but want to send my condolences for an old past friend who was a really good guy but haven't seen or heard about him in many years. Knew Bennie from the Philadelphia Bar and the old Sportsman Cub Bar out in Fisherman's paradise.Had many mutual friends way back when we we all used to hang out just being friends. Sorry to see you go, Bennie, but we;re all right behind you one way or another-say hello to our other old friends already there ahead of you.

Sincerely,

Cat Cheever

Panther in his element.
