Sarah, Yvonne and Ellen so sorry for your loss but we know that God called his disciple home. Benny's actions and good deeds will be remembered by all he touched (and some he did not). It was so good to see you both again. Sarah

I would like to offer my sympathy to Benny's family for losing such a terrific guy. It doesn't seem like it's been 30 years since I met him but it has and he still brings a smile to my face when I think of the classes I took with him. The every day work week was always a joy when he'd greet you, no matter if it was days or weeks since you'd seen him. He was a very special person.
