Almost every human being has a role model. Whether the person’s role model is famous, related to them, or a historical figure of the past. We look up to that person. We want them to be proud of us. Benny Carter is a man of high integrity, honor, and love. He has been a role model for not only me, but for many other men and Christians as well.
Benny Valentine Carter, born on February 14, 1948, has affected me in great ways, by the way he lived before I was born, and he still does so today.

It shows how faithful, and how positive he is.
