He was a proud, patriotic man. To know him was to love him. Bennie believed in God and was an advocate of "doing the right thing". He led a clean life and enjoyed creating memories with his wife, children and family. One thing he greatly enjoyed was hearing family sing when they were together. He would smile and be in the middle of it all! He had his favorite family singers....but all were precious in his heart! Bennie was a sports enthusiast. The Los Angeles Dodgers were his favorite team. He enjoyed attending live games. Once his health was challenged he enjoyed watching games on the television. Everywhere Bennie went he was remembered. He made his mark by being kind, loving and friendly. He will be missed beyond measure. Treasured memories of time spent are priceless.
