Benny Joe Darter, you will and are missed by many. Growing up together there are just to many memories to share. Watch over your family from above they still need you. Old friend I guess this is so long till we meet again. I have always loved the Darter family and always will.

Very sad to hear of your lost. Benny will be missed by many and will always hold a special place in my heart. I know that as close as the family is, you will help each other through the very hard time to come. He will never be forgotten and happy memories will be just a thought away to help you. Love you all and I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers.
