Photography, guns, and loving life. Humor... he raised Jordan ffs.. Have to have a sense of humor at that point. Michael and I became fast friends over the most inane, but ultimately real things. He had an appreciation for the beauty and art of life, but also knew how fragile it all can be. Serving our country likely does that. But holding on to the things that matter, and make you happy, in spite of everything else is what separates great men from those who point fingers or refuse to live. I learned a lot in a short time from you. And your son and wife - how they treat and have treated me - are a testament to you. In fact, how you treated me is a testament to you. All that I can say is thanks. And we will meet again. I know it. Rest in peace good sir. Thank you.

There's something to be said about a person when they make a strong impression on you even if you have only known them for so long. I met Michael years ago during my time at UofA through his son, Jordan. Jordan invited me over to the house for a hearty homemade dinner, something I rarely had during college. Michael cooked up a feast, told stories, made jokes, and made me feel welcome. All of that, in addition to all of the rescue animals that him and Regina took in to look after all of those years, was very memorable to me. I remember that day very vividly and it puts a big smile on my face. Positivity from one person is contagious and can make a strong impact on those around you, and I believe that Michael made a big difference in a lot of lives. He will be missed and my heart breaks for the rest of the Benson Family.

Rest In Peace to the great Michael Benson! Nothing beat those days hanging by the Benson pool with the boys while having Mike cook up those delicious steaks, telling his hairless cat jokes, and making fun of all of us. From guns, to photos, to history lessons there was always something interesting to learn about and he is going to be greatly missed. Much love to the whole Benson family on their loss.

Will always remember the epic birthdays he would throw for Jordan, where he cooked the most amazing meals for all of us (to this day, his steak is still the best I’ve ever had). My thoughts and condolences to the whole Benson family.
