Deanna and family, I am so sorry for your loss. I truly am. I was saddened to hear of his passing. He was such a sweet young man who was so energetic as a kid and I have very fond memories of him and pictures of him and Saidie and all the kids playing when they were little. I pray God consoles you and your family during this difficult time. May he watch over you from up above. RIP Benji.
