    I saw Benny at the worlds records museum in San Francisco in the early 80s. People got to talk and take pictures of him. My bro walked up to him with mom`s camera and he smiled and got his picture. A boy asked him, "The other twin died?" And he looked a little sad nodded and turned away. I wish mom kept the photo but she mailed it to family. RIP to them.
