Title: "Benny's Bicycle Mishap, Jason's as well"** Once upon a time, Benny and I were about ten years old. We decided to play cowboys on our bikes in front of the old laundromat on Main Street. Our brilliant plan involved lassoing each other off our bikes using a rope. However, our initial attempts failed miserably. Undeterred, we put our heads together (or, as Benny would say, our "pee brains") and came up with a new strategy. Why not tie the rope to the sturdy steel railing? That way, we wouldn't burn our hands, and maybe we could finally unseat each other. Benny volunteered to go first. As luck would have it, I swung the rope around and accidentally looped it right around Benny's neck. The rope tightened, and Benny was yanked off his bike. He flew past my grandmother's house and landed flat on his back. Panic set in—I knew we were in trouble. Benny stood up, sporting a massive red rope burn encircling his neck. It was impossible to hide, and we braced ourselves for the consequences. Sure enough, Benny went home, and my dad received a phone call. Let's just say Benny's neck wasn't the only thing that turned bright red and sore that day. Despite the mishap, Benny, we grew up across the street from each other. We shared countless memories. Benny, you'll be missed, and I'm certain we'll meet again someday to reminisce and laugh about our adventures—like the time the police showed up at the lake when we were in our late teens . You boldly took the cooler out into the water, taunting them to come get you and our beer...On that note I want to give my deepest condolences to the family and all his friends as well, Benny I love ya man, we'll see ya again someday rest easy my friend and God bless

Benny was always one of the most outgoing, outspoken and loyal people I have ever met! He was a good friend to many and loved his family fiercely with all of his heart ! Hearing of his passing was a complete shock to myself and I’m sure many , many others! With his fighting spirit and down to earth nature I would have never thought he would be taken so early in his life ! My deepest condolences to his person Kim , her baby girl Emma and his grandchildren , Benny’s parents and his siblings ,their families and all of his cherished nieces and nephews and extended relatives ! He loved you all so much! Benny will definitely be missed deeply by all of those who have had the pleasure to have met him , be his friend and those who he had met even if it was for just a moment! I’m sure he left an impression and a laugh that will last a lifetime! May you rest peacefully surrounded by the angels and send your family signs to let them know you are still there just now you are watching over them and rooting for them on the other side! My prayers are with you until we meet again!

I remember when Benny was 6 years old, we took him and Robbie to Oromocto Canadian Tire to buy them new bikes. Benny was so excited he ran down the long hall inside the mall and wouldn't listen when we said to slow down. Well...he ran smack into the glass door of the mall and landed flat on his little butt. Love you Benny. Till we meet again buddy.
