I met Bennie's brother-in-law, Marcus Jones, while I my daughter and I was at CVICU. I had a conversation with Mr. Jones "Zeke" and it was a privilege to hear him speak of howclose knit and supportive his family is. Our prayers have been with you all ever since and we offer our heartfelt condolences to Bennie's family. May God continue to keep his loving and powerful arms around you all... especially during this very sad time. 🙏🏽❤️🙏🏽
