Benj was an amateur collector of Hot Wheels, and enjoyed flying RCA Airplanes. He was always very active and enjoyed boating, wakeboarding, camping and fishing. He loved music and playing the guitar. In recent years, he developed an interest in gardening and cooking.

Benj will be deeply missed for his enthusiasm, his encouragement, and his friendly acceptance of others. He cared deeply for people in need and demonstrated this by working as a Certified Nurses Assistant in college and serving on mission trips to Africa in his high school years.  Our outlook on life is so much brighter because he has lived and blessed our lives in many ways. He will continue on in our hearts inspiring us to greater compassion and kindness to all.

In lieu of flowers the family suggests memorial donations be sent to the Sunnydale Adventist Academy Mission Trip Fund, in care of Fenton Funeral Chapel, 104 S. Collier, Centralia, MO 65240.
