My dad Roy Elliott and Benny were friends for many many years. He always spoke highly of Benny and as I grew up, I too got to know Benny. I went to school with both daughters, Jane and Christina and were good friends. He will truly be missed by all that knew him. May God comfort you all during this time of such great, unbearable sorrow, and may God provide all your needs. RIP Benny, you will never be forgotten.
I helped Benny out a few days a few years back. He always made sure he had coffee. He was a good person and talked about his daughters a lot. I know he will be greatly missed. God bless you all.
My life was better because I met a gentle person named Benny. He made me laugh. The love he was shown by his daughters will long be remembered. Bless your hearts Christina and Janie.
Christina, you know how far back everything goes- our dads grew up next door to each other, your dad looked out for mine when he was small. It must have somehow brought things full circle when we became inseparable friends too. Your dad was like a second dad to me – I remember calling on him many times for help and he was always there. I loved Benny very much; he was a kind and sweet soul. I love you and will keep you in my thoughts and prayers!

Christina, Jane, Barbara and family, I have many fond memories of Benny. He was a nice fellow. He cleaned my husband's wedding band the last time I saw him. He was bragging on his children and grandchildren. May GOD bring you peace like only HE can. You are in my thoughts and prayers. Love, Teressa
