His death was obtained from the Family Bible of Johnie Ellis and Floria Elizabeth Benton. His tombstone incorrectly lists his name as Michael C. Benton. The birthdate is probably in error as he is first listed in the 1850 census as being 2 years old. In fact his birth date changes in every census and finally stabilizes at the 1852 date. His correct date year is probably 1850 instead of 1852 as recorded in the Family Bible. (Per Betty Parrish) Per Marion Banks McGee his birth date is 1848 apparently taken from the 1850 census.

During WWII he served in the Navy on the heavy destroyer "Ingraham" and fought in the Phillipines Islands. The ship was nearly lost off Luzon when hit by a Japanese War Plane. He was hospitalized from burns he received and awarded the Purple Heart.

He died at his home in Mission Viejo, California the night before he was to go in for his second heart by-pass operation. Seep apnia, high blood pressure, and a type A personality contributed to his death.

He was a very active Jehovah's Witness. He believed in helping others in need. From his study of the Bible he believed in both a heavenly resurrection and an earthly resurrection. He always believed he would see his family again here on earth in the Paradise prepared by his heavenly father when all those in the Memorial Tombs would be resurrected.

He was one of the top appliance salesmen for Sears Roebuck & Co. for 25 years. He worked on straight commission making a very decent living for his wife and two children. He knew how to make his earnings go a long way. He never wasted anything. Jarvis won many a sales contests which sent him and his wife Margie, all expenses paid, to places like Mexico, Hawaii, and Canada to name just a few.

His favorite food was steamed oysters, which he loved to eat with his sister Mildred.

His favorite vacation was going to Reiglewood, N.C. to visit J.W. and Mildred Gore and the rest of the Long Family.

He was an honest hard working man who seldom sat through a complete T.V. program. He was always busy in the garage repairing washers and dryers and just about eveything else. There wasn't anything he couldn't fix. It was in his nature to help anyone in need. There wasn't anything he wouldn't do for his children and grand children. One call and he'd be there. We miss you Dad!
