Barbara, Johnny, and Jimmy, We are so sorry for your loss. Just a few weeks ago, David and I were talking about Benji, and wondering if he still lived in Gaston County. He was a good friend to the both of us, even though we hadn't seen him in years. May your memories comfort you, and may Gods Love and Grace help you through this time of grief, and be with you today.

MY HEART FELT SYMPTHY FOR THE FAMILY AND LOVED ONES OF BENNY. I MET BENNY AT THE AGE OF 16 AND KNOWN HIM FOR OVER 50 YEARS. I AM SO GRATEFUL THAT I GOT TO SPEND SOME QUALITY TIME WITH HIM OVER THIS PAST YEAR. HE WAS A WONDERFUL PERSON, AND A GREAT FRIEND TO ME. HE WILL TRULY BE MISSED. I AM A WITNESS TO THE FACT THAT HE ACCEPTED THE LORD JESUS AS HIS SAVIOR AND TO KNOW I WILL SEE HIM AGAIN ONE DAY IN ETERNITY.
