Arthur “Pete” Benoy, age 87, of Mentor, MN, passed away on Tuesday, June 13th, at his home. 
On March 11, 1957, Pete and Bonnita “Bonnie” Stone united in love at Our Saviors Lutheran Church in Crookston, MN. Their love story blessed them with four wonderful children, Victoria (Charles) Mogilevsky, Ricky (Janice) Benoy, Constance (William) O’Brien, and Kathryn (Jeffrey) Scheving.
Ever the community servant, Pete wore many hats. He was a dedicated fireman for the Mentor Fire Department for over 20 years, served on the Faith Lutheran Church Council, Village of Mentor Council, and was a proud member of the Red Lake Falls Masons.
His legacy is carried forward by his loving wife Bonnie; their children, Victoria, Ricky, Constance, and Kathryn; their partners, and the generations that follow. Pete now joins his parents, Bud and Martha.
A memorial service will be held at 1:00 p.m. on Monday, June 19th, at Faith Lutheran Church in Mentor with the Rev. Michael Sletto officiating. Interment will be in Rosehill Cemetery, Mentor, at a later date. Family will greet friends for one hour prior to the service on Monday at the church. Arrangements are with Carlin Family Funeral Service of Erskine.
