It can be said of Benson, that he was a simple man, but he wasn't. He just never felt that he had anything to prove to anyone. He was always true to himself, he was just Benson. He worked hard to provide for his family and he tried to live a Godly life. Jesus said " Love your neighbor" and Benson did. If he was needed and could help, he would be there.

Benson loved Linda and Brandon with all of his heart, and proved it by being a loving husband and father, he was always there when they needed him. He loved to fish whenever he had the chance. By numerous call and visits, we know that we aren't the only people that loved and appreciated Benson. He will be missed by all that knew him.
