Benjamin "Benny" Berestovoy, a beloved figure in the Dania Beach community, passed away in a tragic accident last Friday at Nautical Ventures Marina. Benny, originally from Paraguay, was working as a dedicated marine technician, preparing vessels for an upcoming show, when an unexpected explosion claimed his life.
Benny’s work at the marina went far beyond his technical expertise. To his coworkers, he was more than a skilled technician; he was a true friend whose warm character brightened every day. He leaves behind his devoted wife, Natalia, and their children, Jonathan, Ivan, and Tamara, all of whom were the heart of his life. Known for his generosity and unyielding commitment to his family, Benny touched many lives through his kindness and dedication.
In this time of profound grief, family friend Johnny Castro has organized a fundraiser to help cover funeral and memorial expenses. The funds raised will assist Benny’s family with immediate needs, children’s support, and other unforeseen expenses, alleviating some of the financial strain during this difficult time.
The community has come together to remember Benny and show their support. Friends have shared heartfelt messages online. Alicia Pope wrote, “This tragic accident has impacted our family deeply. This kind man is my little sister’s father-in-law. Please, anything to help them during this time is greatly appreciated.” Toni Dornacker expressed, “Prayers and love to his family and friends… this breaks my heart.” Sam Christian added, “Oh no, I’m so sorry to hear this. Sending hugs and prayers.”
Benny’s legacy of compassion, warmth, and kindness will continue to inspire all who knew him. We extend our deepest condolences to his family and friends, holding them close in our thoughts and prayers during this time of sorrow.
