Bennie Oliver

Mr. Oliver was a roommate to my uncle Pete (Leon) Eckert for a few months at the Goodall-Witcher Nursing Facility. Our family appreciated his sweet, gentle manner with everyone he met. He was a good companion for my uncle who was nearly blind. The two of them would sit in the lobby for several hours a day -- just sitting quietly or reminiscing about when they were both young and living in the Cayote area. Even at his advanced age, Mr. Oliver was ministering to those around him. Blessed...

I would like to express my deep sympathy to the Bennie Oliver family, he was a life long member of the Presbyterian church, he will be greatly missed. Edna & George Long

Mr. Bennie will be missed for his long life of solos. We always knew that he would represent his church with a solo. He was a friend of my uncle who preceded him in death,(Rev. Deshonge Smith). With deepest of sympathy. Alma
