elevated jtBur Benito loved life and lived it to the fullest. He always cherished sharing a good meal and spending time with family and friends. Benito enjoyed the outdoors, tending to his vegetable garden, playing bocce, fishing, a good barbecue and camping at Balsam Lake. He also loved to dance in his own unique way. But by far, he treasured and adored his wife, his children, his grandchildren and great grandchild the most. Benito was an extremely hard worker and an incredibly talented carpenter. He spent many hours in his garage creating amazing works of art. Benito will be remembered for his kindness, his friendly nature and for his wonderful sense of humour. He could tell a joke like no other. His beautiful smile would always light up the room. Benito was adored by all, will be missed by many and will be lovingly remembered in the hearts of family and friends.
