Not sure what to say?

Sweet Jack and Beautiful Betty have been a staple in our life. Memories of Jack playing the piano and singing loudly in the evening are precious to us. There couldn´t be a frown in the room when Uncle Jack entered because he´d have positivity to share with everyone. He was never in short of love to share with all and our whole family felt this constantly from both Jack and Betty. We are praying for peace and comfort for Betty, family and all loved ones that will feel his earthly absence. We...

Dear sweet Betty, I was only privileged to meet Jack a few times but from listening to stories of Jack relayed by you, Susan and Larry, I feel a real acquaintance and connection to Jack. I´ve also heard the love in your voice and have seen the softness of your eyes twinged with sparks when you speak of your precious sweetheart. I know your pain is heavy, his physical presence is missed and nothing will change this, but rest in knowing that he loved you just as much as you loved him and he did...

To Betty and the rest of the Jack Benson Family, you have our thoughts, love and prayers. Jack has been a pleasure and joy for us to know. I, Dudley always enjoyed visiting with Jack and we had a lot of good laughs together. Jack was "always" pleasant to be around. My only regret is I had not known both Jack & Betty 50 years ago! We both wish we had known both Jack & Betty many years before we did. Great Christian people and friends! Our love and prayers to you all, Dudley and Vivian

We have so many fond memories of Jack and will miss his smile and warm heartedness. Much love to Betty and the rest of the family.

I count myself blessed to have known such a wonderful man. His kindness is always the thing stands out in my mind and made a big impact on me as a teen. Love and condolences to you all.

One of the definitions of joy could be "Jack Benson". He expressed joy, he modeled joy, he even looked like joy. The smile was the first indication, but through conversation and actions he exhibited his joy of service, commitment, and dedication. He created joy in himself and instilled joy in others through his selflessness and kindness, compassion, and caring for others. Jack brought joy into our lives, and we rejoice in his decision to serve God and serve others to His glory. We love both...

Awesome guy Always smiling and giving out hugs!

Jack and Betty provided wonderful hospitality for me after heart surgery in 1997 - needing a place to stay. Jack always had that great smile and encouraging word for all. He is missed. Love in the Lord.

Jack was a dear friend to Patty, Amelia and me. His warm hearted and genuine smile reflected his peaceful and loving character. We will miss him.
