Benji was a huge fan of the Philadelphia Eagles and the Spurs basketball team. Over the years Benjamin worked for the SWC Agency C-store, many roofing companies, and Woodland. He always had a smile and lit up any room he walked in to. Benji always told his older sister Cella that he loved her frybread. He loved all of his nieces and nephews and would've made a great dad.
