I liked him as Benson too, kinda weird that just last year we also lost the man who played Governor Gatling. I hope they're sharing laughs tonight.

And if anyone grew up in the 90's, they'd recognize his voice from The Lion King, playing this goofy fellow:

Besides, living to the age of 89 is nothing to scoff at. Go with God, Benson.

Your Pal,
Doc

So sad, in the past I did see some episodes of "Benson", the show seemed to be popular then, and I can imagine he was liked by all.

I remember a Christmas ep of Benson where they were singing carols. Then he started singing O Holy Night that blew me away. I found this on YouTube yesterday:
