William Benton

I grew up with Bill and brother Brent; our Mom's were very close friends and we were neighbors a few blocks away. It is sad when we staet losing our firends but it is an opportunity to reconnect and let his family know that I often do think of them and about our time growing up. [email protected]

I work for Dr. Paul Corn and I talked to Mr. Benton almost every other day. Very sad to learn of his passing May he Rest in Peace.

From Kindergarten at Bluebonnet to swim meets at Paschal, I will cherish all the memories. Billy will be missed by everyone. May the Peace of God surround his family during this difficult time.

Sorry for your loss. I trust he is in a better place. We were long time classmates who lost touch.

Bill was both the consummate professional as a CPA, and a brilliant conversationalist on current events. But most of all, he was a kind and gentle spirit I will greatly miss.

Oh, Billy. Your easy smile and gentle ways will be missed by so many. My heart goes out to your family. Oh,my. This one really hurts.

Bill was an admired and stalwart member of the accounting community here in Fort Worth; he will be greatly missed.

Dear Dorothy and family,
Please know that you are in my thoughts and prayers at this difficult time. Billy and I went all the way through school..Bluebonnet, McLean, & PHS together. What a wonderful friend he was all through the years, always smiling and caring about everyone. I've enjoyed seeing him at the reunions and was looking forward to our 50th next summer. Our class has lost a very special friend. I will treasure his memory always.
