Welcome to Benson Funeral Home.
My family and I are proud to be a part of your community. My Grandparents, Walter and Ina Dyer owned and operated the Cavan Store in the 1950's prior to my Grandfather entering into Ministry and eventually becoming Incumbent of the Parish of Millbrook and Cavan Manvers. During my grandparents ministry in this area I was raised and attended both "The Old" Millbrook School and South Cavan Public School. It is my privilege to serve families I remember from my childhood and to provide this service surrounded by the land we call home.
