watching Hallmark Channel movies, and attending Monday night Bingo. A generous spirit,
Victor also volunteered his time at the Food Bank of the Rio Grande Valley, giving back to the
community he loved.
He was preceded in death by his siblings, Joaquin Bennett Jr. and Margarita Bennett.
Victor is survived by his loving wife, Eloisa Bennett; his children, Nancy Marie Bennett and
Victor Bennett Jr; and his cherished grandson, Jacob Anastacio Bennett, along with his honorary
grandchildren Javier Alejandro "Alex" Maldonado, Isaac Gutierrez, and Samara Gutierrez. He is
also survived by his siblings, Leonel "Leo" Bennett (JiHong Huang Bennett), Matilde Bennett
Rosas (Ruben Rosas), and Lucy Cantu; as well as numerous nieces, nephews, and extended
family members who will carry his memory in their hearts.
Visitation will be held on Friday, October 24, 2025, from 5:00 PM to 9:00 PM at Garza
