Benny was a builder of friendships, celebrations and household projects. He was deeply respected and loved by his friends. Those who knew him cherished his infectious smile, witty nature and his ability to solve crossword puzzles. Those who went with him to his favorite store, Lowes will continue to sing, "Lowes. Lowes. I love Lowes." in his memory. Benny was a man who faithfully believed in the Detriot Tigers. He was such an adamant fan that he refused to call or allowed the doctors to call his children "The Twins" for fear of giving recognition to another team. He therefore insisted they be called the "The Tigers". The Doctors obliged. Benny will always continue to keep the Tigers close to his heart. He will be cherished, loved1 and missed by his children, Brandon, Riley and Mia and his wife, Julie.
