After their children left home and for several years, they traveled the United States and lived their dreams. They lived in California, Wyoming, and most memorably…Montana.

People that knew him would tell you that he always had a smile on his face and that he never met a stranger. Benny loved living and always saw the good in people. He celebrated life every day that he lived. His family will miss him dearly.
