Benny Boysen of Irving, TX, left this world on 03/18/2018 in Irving, TX. He will always be remembered as a loving, caring husband, father and friend to all that knew him. He was born on 12/27/1945 to August Otto Boysen and Evelyn Boysen.
Benny would have given you the shirt off his back. He was such a selfless man. He loved his family deeply and showed them every day. He loved his grandkids with all his heart. He loved his children and instilled his work ethics to make sure he provided above and beyond for them. But, most of all his love for his wife was never doubted. You could look at them and know that the word love was Benny and Dianne. He was always looking to make you smile or laugh, he was a jokester. He was a collector of things from Coins, Ceramic Ducks to Magnets. Every squirrel was called Willie. He retired, but was still working “part time” because, he loved his job and his friends at work. He was an honored Veteran of Vietnam. He loved his country and was proud to have served in the Army. He was also a quiet and private man, who cherished the value of family. He passed that value down to his children whom have stood up and will carry on his legacy.
