I was very sorry to hear of Bennys passing. I was a nurse on the 6th floor at LGMC when Nina was sick. Also my mother Cindy knew the Croy family as well. I can honestly say that in my time on 6west I was truly blessed to get to see such a loving and devoted couple. Benny was amazing in the face of such hard times. My mother and I pray that you will all find peace and comfort in knowing that they are together again.

Our deepest sympathy is extended to the Croy family at this very difficult time. Please know our thoughts and prayers are with the family. It had been many years since I had spoken with anyone from the Croy family, when I started working with Danielle I learned "Black Jack" and "Lil" were Danielle's grandparents - which gave me the opportunity to share a few "stories" of her grandpa and my Dad, Ralph Thompson aka: RoHo.
Please know our condolences are with Bennie's entire family.

Dear Family,
I am sincerely sorry to hear about Uncle Benny. Unfortunately, I will not be able to make it home for the service, but my thoughts and prayers are with you all. He was always very kind to me and Elizabeth when we were kids and we have so many happy memories of growing up beside him and Aunt Nina...I'll never forget his laugh and always remember his smile! Please send my love to everyone...
Love,
Kimberly

Lashell I am so sorry to hear of you losing Benny. I met you & Nina & Benny back in 1976 when I moved to Roanoke. My name is "Sissy" I married an "Oliver".I remember Benny was such a kind man & always made you feel at home. He was that "cool grown up" kids liked to be around. It has been many years since I last saw or was able to speak to you since you grew up. Please know I have never forgotten you as being my first "Friend" in Roanoke. Praying for you & the family at this time. Be strong little "Shell".
