It is with a spirit of celebration and deep love that we announce the passing of Bennie Frank Clemons, who left this world on September 12, 2025, at the age of 78. Born on September 4, 1947, Bennie lived a full and remarkable life. He was a proud father, grandfather, and dedicated worker at Ford Motor Company.
Bennie's warmth, kindness, and infectious laughter will forever remain in the hearts of all who knew him.
Family and friends are invited to join us in celebrating Bennie's life. A Family Hour will take place on Saturday, September 20, 2025, at 8:30 AM, followed by a Funeral Service at 9:00 AM at James H. Cole Home for Funerals - Northwest Chapel.
There will be a Public Viewing on Friday, September 19th, from 4:00 PM to 9:00 PM at the same location, allowing all to come and pay their respects to a remarkable man who touched so many lives.
Bennie will be laid to rest at Detroit Memorial Park West in Redford, MI following the service, where he will continue to inspire and watch over us from above.
We invite all who knew and loved Bennie to join us as we honor his legacy and share stories of the joy he brought into our lives. Let us celebrate the spirit of an incredible man who will never be forgotten.
