If you knew Benny, you knew he loved cycling and had been a cyclist from a young age. Benny was a true southern gentleman and loved people. He Loved the Lord with all his heart, and since learning he had esophageal cancer, he would constantly say, "God's Got This." Even after months of radiation, chemo, pain and struggling, his faith was strong. He was a faithful servant with a heart of gold and will be truly missed.
A Memorial Service will be held at 2:00 PM on Sunday, June 7, 2020, at Wellford Baptist Church, conducted by Rev. Carl Poole.
In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to American Cancer Society, 154 Mile Stone Way, Greenville, SC 29615 or Wellford Baptist Church, 235 Syphrit Road, Wellford, SC 29385.
