Not sure what to say?

I knew Benny well, we talked & txed sometimes every day & got together often.. We often talked Sunday morning while we both drove to our different churches.. When i heard about his passing i felt like i slid off the top shelf - i Never expected this.. Benny was a very giving man, even to people he didn't know & he often talked about everyone than offended anyone will be accountable to God one day.. if we were together 10 times, he said that 5 times or more.. I found out about our Benny...

farmer benny was a great honest hard working man. he will be greatly missed by his close family and friends.

To bennys two daughters and son i am so sad for your lose. Benny sr " farmer benny" as i always called him was my great friend and its been a great honor to be his friend for 15yrs. i know he was one of the nicest guys and kind to all my family and friends and even became friends with many of them also.and he would always tell me to have a good time with my granddaughter rowan when i'd tell him she is coming to visit . farmer benny was a hard worker and enjoyed his farm. he and i great times...

I'm so sorry to hear about Benny. My condolences to his family.

Benny was one of my closest friend since high school. We visited each other's house and kept in close contact for more than 40 years. I will miss you my friend. Watch over us.

Grief can be so hard, but your special memories will help you cope. Your in my thoughts and prayers ❤
