Tributes

Since the news of his passing, his wife Carole has been overwhelmed by the tributes and comments made about 'Benny'.

In a posting on Facebook she remarked: "I just cannot believe the wonderful, warm, kind comments I've read in reaction to Benny's passing! This has made my heart swell to bursting and has helped me so very much in the past few dark days — it's crystal clear I'm not the only person who loved this man to bits!
