He was my Uncle Beni but in many ways he was more like a big brother to me. He came to live with us when my grandfather died...my mom was his big sister...and he lived with us through out my teenage years. He was only 10 years older than me. I loved him dearly and will never forget his loving and caring ways to me and my family. Now he is with my mom and the rest of his family. I hope they are sitting at the big family table having macaroni and meatballs . Losing him is a great loss to our family. Rest in peace dear Uncle Beni...
