To the family, we are so very sorry to hear about Benny. It is really hard. I know that he is always with all of you. He love his family very much. He was a amazing man who knew a lot about cars and truck,and etc. He was one that would help you no matter what it was. He was a smart man and a goofy guy sometimes. If you was upset he would get you laughing. We will miss him. R.I.P.Benny
