So sorry to hear of your loss. I worked with Ben at MEC and have many fond memories. Hard worker who loved to have fun - I remember playing soccer with him in the hallways at MEC, And few people had as much customer contact then Ben...a great ambassador for Kodak. I will always have a smile on my face with I think of Ben Herrera!!

My condolences to Ben's family. Ben and I worked together at Time Warner and we would sit and talk on our lunch hours. He talked about his family whom he loved very much. He talked about his childhood, his family, vacations, and retirement-I enjoyed our talks, RIP my friend I know you are smiling down on all of us !
