Allan Benson passed away peacefully on March 27, 2019 in Portland at age 84. Al was born and raised in Seaside, Oregon by parents, Adolph and Evelyn Benson. Although physically disabled from birth, Al refused to accept it. Through his endless strength and determination, he overcame every obstacle before him. He deeply touched and motivated everyone around him, with his sense of humor, quick wit, kindness and grace.
Al was a loving and devoted husband to wife, Anne of Portland, and an inspirational big brother to Robert L. Benson of Prineville, and David L. Benson of Warrenton. There will be a family memorial at a later date.
In lieu of flowers, donations are requested to be made to the Shriners Hospital for Children, Portland, OR. Please feel free to leave a fond memory of Al or a condolence message for his family below.
